The mission of the University of babyÖ±²¥app Boulder’s Clinical Psychology PhD program is to train clinical scientists who will produce and apply scientific knowledge in understanding, assessing, preventing, and treating emotional and behavioral problems. As a program, we strive to be a just, welcoming, and inclusive community. We have four primary goals towards which we are continually working that guide the overall structure of our program. These include:

Ìý

  1. Maintaining a curriculum of cutting-edge courses and clinical training experiences that cover a broad knowledge base of psychology, clinical psychology, interdisciplinary training, and multicultural awareness/perspectives.
  2. Providing a training environment that values and fosters reproducible, representative, justice-oriented, and ethical conduct of research.
  3. Training clinicians who can skillfully apply scientifically-based principles of assessment and intervention, including how to apply these principles in a culturally competent way that respects client characteristics and preferences.
  4. Attending to diversity and inclusion in program policies and practices, which we believe is essential in addressing the above program goals to offer a cutting-edge curriculum, conduct responsible research, and train clinicians in conducting empirically supported assessment and intervention.

Our program is committed to offering a training and mentorship model that emphasizes the support and well-being of students in the program, and to fostering diversity, including in the graduate student body. Please see the Clinical Student Handbook for more information on the program.
