Clinical Psychology Degree (BS) | Marywood University

Set Your Psychology Career in Motion with a Clinical Psychology Degree

Clinical psychology is one of the largest specialty areas within psychology. Having a passion for discovery, learning, and listening are part of what it takes to be successful as a psychologist who delivers clinical or counseling services. Psychologists trained to provide clinical services work in research, education, training, and health sectors. Others specialize in areas such as counseling and school psychology. Working with numerous populations, they focus on individual differences, normal and abnormal behavior, mental and emotional health, healthy behaviors and mental disorders and their prevention.

Earning a Bachelor of Science degree with the Psychology - Clinical Practices track at Marywood University will set your career as a psychologist in motion. As a Clinical Psychology major, our faculty will provide you with an in-depth understanding of human behavior and a broad interdisciplinary study of humanity. You'll be trained in scientific and critical thinking and in research methods and statistical analysis; you'll learn to see psychology as an approach to solving problems and discovering new ideas. You will gain advanced knowledge of the fundamentals of clinical psychology along with applied experience through internship.

The 48-credit Clinical Track involves preparation for professional careers in clinical psychology and related areas, including but not limited to counseling, school psychology, and neuropsychology. Those who desire employment in the field immediately after graduation, and/or who seek to pursue graduate study in clinical psychology or related areas, should pursue the Clinical Track.

I chose to study Clinical Psychology here at Marywood because not only is the campus welcoming, but the Psychology department is immaculate. All my professors know me by first name due to the small class sizes and it feels good to have that personal connection with them. Whenever I have a question or concern, they are always there to help.
