Introduction
The Ph.D. program in Clinical Psychology at St. John’s consists of four years of full-time coursework and related practicum experience, followed by a one-year clinical internship (or equivalent) in an approved setting and completion of a doctoral dissertation.
The program prepares broadly trained, competent, psychological professionals in a variety of psychodiagnostic and intervention procedures and research. Students are required to demonstrate their ability to understand and interpret others' research and design and execute relevant research of their own. The program prepares students to function in the diverse professional, academic, and research roles performed by clinical psychologists. It does so by offering broad exposure to the theoretical and empirical underpinnings of general psychology while also providing extensive training in assessment and intervention strategies.
