Students’ understanding and skills in these areas are further deepened through specialized practicum opportunities
  • In addition to the core program, students also gain specialized training through either the neuropsychology or lifespan tracks (described under the “Program Information” tab) These two tracks are a unique strength of the clinical psychology program that allows students to customize their training to their specific career goals
