What will I learn?

In the PsyD program, we train students to lead across a range of settings in the field of health service psychology. In CBU’s Clinical Psychology, PsyD program, students focus on the practice of clinical psychology, using the science of clinical psychology to guide their professional work. They develop research skills through research teams and other avenues that result in original, empirical research projects. Through coursework, practicum training, a full-time internship, a clinical competency exam and an original dissertation project, students develop the requisite skills, attitudes, knowledge and behavior to serve a diverse public. The ultimate aim of the CBU PsyD program is to prepare doctoral students for entry-level practice in clinical psychology.

Entry requirements

For international students

Minimum 3.0 GPA Bachelors degree from an accredited college or university recognized by the U.S. Department of Education and/or the Council for Higher Education Accreditation or the evaluated equivalency. Official transcripts from all colleges and universities attended. Students with a masters degree in clinical psychology or a closely related field may be eligible to transfer up to 27 units towards the CBU PsyD degree. Given that clinical psychology is distinct from other areas of professional work in mental health, the masters degree (or masters-level coursework) must be in a closely related field. Moreover, coursework must have been completed in the last five years, given that much of the scientific literature tends to evolve and change every year. Prior coursework will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis for possible course credit. Only the below courses are considered for transfer credit, with few exceptions: History of Psychological Science (3 units) Cognitive and Affective Bases of Behavior (3 units) Behavioral Neuroscience (3 units) Human Development Across the Lifespan (3 units) Human Social Behavior (3 units) Human Sexuality, Sexual Disorders, and Treatment (2 units) Addictive Behavior (2 units) Child Abuse Reporting, Assessment, and Treatment (2 units) Intimate Partner Abuse (2 units) Aging and Long-Term Care (2 units) Clinical Psychopharmacology (2 units)

*There may be different IELTS requirements depending on your chosen course.
