Thank you for your interest in the Health Psychology and Clinical Science (HPCS) training area in the Ph.D. Program in Psychology at the City University of New York!

HPCS is a full-time doctoral program, with matriculation occurring only in the fall semester. The program trains clinical and health scientists.  Our training model emphasizes clinical research training and our curriculum is designed to be congruent with NYS licensure requirements and we currently hold  APA Accreditation on Contingency.

Competitive applicants to our program are those with solid research experience, optimally in the areas of health psychology and clinical science. Our program maintains a focus on conducting both mentored and independent research during graduate study, leading up to an original empirical dissertation study.

Applications for next year will be due December 1, 2022 and should be submitted via the Application Portal below. Our Faculty Page will be updated each year to indicate who is accepting a student for this application cycle. Due to the ongoing impact of COVID-19 on GRE testing, the Ph.D. Program in Psychology is suspending all GRE requirements for Fall 2021 applications. If you have already taken the exam, you may upload your scores as usual. TOEFL and IELTS requirements are not suspended.
