Program
What will you learn?

Our Clinical Psychology program is based on the latest clinical science and provides education in clinical assessment and intervention. We train future clinicians to implement a wide range of evidence-based practices consistent with ethical and professional standards.

During the first year of study, you will receive intensive theoretical education and study introduction to clinical treatment. You will gain extensive knowledge of child and adult psychopathology and acquire basic skills related to psychotherapy, assessment, and clinical research.

During the second year, the majority of modules are dedicated to the psychotherapeutic process and to developing practical clinical skills such as working with adults with behavioral addictions, families and groups. You will also write your Master’s thesis and complete a 100-hour psychological practice that includes clinical training.

Who the program is addressed to?

The Clinical Psychology specialization is a good choice for students interested in mental and behavioral health, who want to help others to understand and overcome psychologically-based distress and prevent emotional and social dysfunction in daily life. The program is appropriate for students who hold an undergraduate degree in Psychology or a related field of study.
