In line with its clinical science training model, the program was also recently accredited by the Psychological Clinical Science Accreditation System (PCSAS). The Clinical Psychology Faculty actively contribute to departmental bridge topics that transcend training areas, including research strengths in the areas of Diversity & Inclusion, Maladaptive Behavior, Individual Differences, and Social Relationships.
