Clinical Psychology (MA/PhD) : Be a leader and an advocate
DePaul’s Clinical Psychology MA/PhD program emphasizes training in both scientific research and practice and has been recognized by the APA for training in diversity. You’ll gain a deep understanding of the societal and systemic forces that influence mental health and contribute to disparities in access to adequate health care for poor, urban and ethnically diverse populations. You’ll be prepared to work in the public sector, in an urban environment, with diverse ethnic and socio-economic populations, and with children, teens and families who have been traditionally underserved by psychology.
Choose from two areas of emphasis:
The community track emphasizes training in prevention, program development, consultation, empowerment and health promotion. The community track will review applications after the December 1st, 2026 deadline to begin the program in fall 2027.
The child track focuses on developmental psychopathology and treatment of underserved youth in schools and community settings. The child track will review applications after the December 1st, 2025 deadline to begin the program in fall 2026.
The Clinical Psychology MA/PhD is a combined degree. The MA is non-terminal, and the program admits only students intending to earn the PhD. Classes are offered on the Lincoln Park Campus, and this program can be completed in five or six years.
