Overview

The Clinical and School Psychology program at University of Virginia is one of only 14 APA-accredited combined programs, and the only Ph.D. program that integrates training in clinical and school psychology.

Career Objective

Our graduates seek leadership careers in a diverse set of organizations including schools, hospitals, medical centers, universities, and primary health care practices, working with children, adolescents, and adults.

Accreditation

The Ph.D. in Clinical & School Psychology program is fully accredited by the American Psychological Association as a combined program in clinical and school psychology.

Programme Structure

Curriculum:

The program embraces a contextual understanding of the well-being and mental health of children, youth, and young adults. In particular, we recognize that maximizing mental health requires psychologists to integrate mental health services across multiple settings (e.g., family, community, school).

In particular, school experiences play a significant role in shaping youth development – children, as early as age three, are spending five days per week in a classroom, youth in public school spend the majority of their waking time in school, and 70% of young adults end up enrolled in colleges or universities.
