Venue description

This department has offered a Doctor of Psychology (PsyD) in clinical psychology. The PsyD degree at the University of Denver focuses on scientifically based training for applied professional work rather than on the more traditional academic-scientific approach to clinical training. The main emphasis is on general clinical psychology with opportunities for some limited degrees of specialization. A 1972 NIMH-sponsored conference on patterns and levels of professional training in psychology strongly supported the development of PsyD programs. The Federation of Regional Accrediting Commissions in Higher Education has recommended the development of content-oriented doctoral programs for applied professional training, with the PhD to be awarded by primarily research-oriented programs.
