Clinical Practica
All students participate in clinical practica while carrying a full load of course work. The practica are cumulative, sequential, and graded in complexity across the years of the program. First-year students begin their training at the school-affiliated Center for Psychological Services. They are supervised by full-time members of the doctoral faculty. Students in the second and third year spend one year at the Center for Psychological Services under FDU faculty supervision, and one year at one of over 200 potential practicum sites in the New York metropolitan and New Jersey areas, where they conduct inpatient and/or outpatient testing and treatment under the supervision of a licensed doctoral-level clinical psychologist. Clinical practica require approximately 16 hours each week. The following is a partial sampling of practicum sites for FDU’s Ph.D. Program in Clinical Psychology:
