Overview

About the program

The Psychology - Clinical Psychology program at the University of Wisconsin Milwaukee is designed to train psychologists as generalists. However, clinically, our faculty interests cluster in three primary areas including neuroscience/neuropsychology, cognitive-behavioral therapy, and pediatric/health psychology.

The faculty apply these approaches to topical research interests spanning developmental disorders, pediatric psychology, substance use, anxiety and affective disorders, interpersonal violence, trauma, computer and web-based interventions, and learning problems. As a result, students often leave the program with a focus in one or more of these areas.
