Description:
The Psy.D. program in Clinical Psychology, accredited by the American
Psychological Association, is grounded in the Vail-practitioner model of
clinical psychological training. The Psy.D. program is committed to the
education and training objectives for doctoral programs set forth by The
American Psychological Association (APA) and has been influenced by the values
of The National Council of Schools and Programs in Professional Psychology
(NCSPP). Students are instructed intensively in psychotherapy, psychodiagnostics
and in other areas pertinent to the practice of clinical psychology. The Psy.D.
program fosters the development of research skill through coursework,
independent projects under faculty direction, and dissertation. Program
graduates are prepared to take leadership positions in the mental health field.
All course scheduling is done with advisement. As an evening program, the Psy.D.
curriculum was developed to address the educational needs and objectives of
students who have a master's degree, who are working, and whose lifestyles do
not permit attendance at daytime classes.
The Psy.D. program is distinct from the counseling master's degree programs
in admissions, curriculum, research and practica requirements. Students work
only toward the doctoral degree and do not study for a master's degree
simultaneously. Students in the Psy.D. program are referred to the Psy.D.
Handbook and the Dissertation Handbook, which delineate additional aspects of
the doctoral program, including philosophy, goals, competencies, curriculum,
dissertation, comprehensive examination, practica, and internship.
