Overview

CU Denver is committed to an inclusive culture, one in which all people are valued, welcomed, supported, and educated. The Clinical Health Psychology program is aligned with these values. Please see below our statement regarding diversity and inclusion.

Key Facts

In the Clinical Health Psychology programme from University of Colorado Denver, students are trained in a variety of approaches and techniques for evaluating, diagnosing and treating a wide range of psychological problems. Because our programme places an emphasis on health, our students are also trained to assess the psychological factors associated with different medical conditions and learn to design effective interventions that integrate biological, psychological and social (including cultural) factors. Students acquire research expertise by completing a master's thesis and doctoral dissertation and demonstrate competence in clinical assessment and intervention through several applied practica experiences, a clinical competency evaluation, and a pre-doctoral internship. With this broad and intense model of training, our students have gone on to diverse professional postdoctoral fellowships and professional careers.
