Internships

Our students do applied internships in such settings as:

• Homeless shelters
• Developmental centers serving at-risk children and families
• Crisis hotline programs
• Domestic violence agencies
• Court mandated programs
• Substance abuse programs

For applied internships, junior and senior psychology majors enroll in PSY 400 Internship in Psychology, which involves an 80-hour field placement in a clinical setting or other site involving applied psychology. Students receive on-site supervision as well as oversight by a mentor from our full-time faculty. Contact Professor Paul Ginnetty ([email protected]) for more information.

Also gain practical experience in our service learning courses;

• Community psychology
• Travel abroad (e.g.,  Oxford, Romania)

and are offered internships in research laboratories.
