Description:
The Chicago School of Professional Psychology (in Los Angeles, Chicago, and Online) is the nation’s leading nonprofit school dedicated exclusively to psychology and related fields. The school is accredited by the Higher Learning Commission and an active member of the National Council of Schools and Programs of Professional Psychology, which has recognized The Chicago School for its distinguished service and outstanding contribution to cultural diversity and advocacy. Since our founding in 1979, we have become recognized as innovators in the field. Our approach to psychology training and education is unique in several important ways: * Emphasis on applied learning. Our students learn by doing, and they leave us with powerful and full resumes. In addition to a traditional internship, our students enjoy a rich spectrum of clinical training, community service, and applied field research opportunities that prepare them for success in a way few other schools can. * Focus on diversity. We actively infuse all of our academic programs with curricula to build students’ knowledge of and competence in working with people from diverse cultures, backgrounds, and perspectives. * Practitioner faculty. Our faculty members are focused not just on theory and research, but on meeting the real-world challenges of individuals, organizations, and society. They bring their years of professional experience into the classroom, providing a rich—yet powerfully practical—educational experience for our students. * Intimate learning community that allows for personalized attention and frequent interaction and collaboration with faculty and fellow students. * Campuses in large, metropolitan cities that offer an unrivaled range of opportunities for clinical training, community service, field research, and professional networking.
