The Psychology Department offers a Psychology PhD in Clinical Psychology, educating students in both the science and the practice of clinical psychology. The Clinical Psychology track in the Psychology PhD Program emphasizes the scientist-practitioner model of training as promulgated by the American Psychological Association (APA). The doctoral program in Clinical Psychology is accredited by the American Psychological Association. The advent of managed care has resulted in significant changes in the mental health care delivery system and the role of clinical psychologists in that system. Psychologists are utilized less for the direct delivery of psychological services and increasingly for performing professional duties such as administration, development of programmatic treatments, program evaluation, supervision, and research. Thus, there is a need for training to reflect the professional roles of the Clinical Psychologist in the twenty-first century. The Clinical Psychology doctorate is designed to respond to these changing roles.
