Doctor of Philosophy in Clinical Psychology

The clinical psychology graduate degree program at the University of Regina in Saskatchewan trains students in the scientist-practitioner tradition. Designed to work in tandem, the master’s and PhD programs allow you to make steady, seamless progress toward your educational and career goals:

The Master of Arts in Clinical Psychology establishes an academic and practical foundation for personal and professional growth.
The PhD in Clinical Psychology builds upon that foundation with opportunities to acquire clinical skills and to pursue advanced study and research.

Normally, applicants must have obtained a thesis-based Master's degree in the discipline to qualify as a doctoral student. Applicants must have academic credentials consistent with being fully-qualified to undertake graduate work at the doctoral level. The categories of probationary or qualifying student do not apply at the doctoral level.

An applicant who does not have sufficient background training or courses prerequisite to scholarly work in the particular subject of study and research will not be admitted as a doctoral student. An applicant may be admitted as a Master's student and be required to undertake specific courses toward establishing appropriate credentials, but any graduate study undertaken for this purpose cannot be counted as time spent toward formal requirements for the degree.

Alternatively, an applicant may be accepted at the Master's level as a means of illustrating suitability to enter a doctoral program, and after the first year may request, through the academic unit, a transfer to a PhD program.
