Clinical Psychology

As you work towards our Clinical Psychology Ph.D., you are immersed in an advanced course of study specializing in human science approaches to clinical psychology, integrating theory, research, and clinical practice.
While it is possible to complete the program in five years, most students graduate in six or seven years.
