The Department of Psychology participates in the Virginia Consortium Program in Clinical Psychology. This unified program is offered jointly by Old Dominion University and Norfolk State University and is accredited by the American Psychological Association. The combined efforts of these institutions give considerable breadth and depth to this unique program. Students take classes at both institutions and are engaged in 研究 activities and 临床 work throughout their training. The Program follows a scientist-practitioner training model. The Virginia Consortium emphasizes the following areas in its training model: (1) 研究 (2) ethics; (3) diversity, and (4) 临床 assessment and intervention.
Program Highlights

Students are fully funded with tuition waived

Five year (4+1) program: first two years are largely didactic, although students are involved in 研究 continuously (including a master’s thesis or foundational 研究 project) and begin 临床 practica in their first year.

The Virginia Consortium provides a systematic sequence of supervised pre-internship practica in which students apply the knowledge and skills acquired in the classroom to 临床 settings.
