The University of Delaware's program is accredited by PCSAS (Psychological Clinical Science Accreditation System) and by the APA (Committee on Accreditation, American Psychological Association).
We are committed to training clinical scientists who can ease the burden of mental illness and promote well-being in society through research, treatment development, and service delivery. Our training opportunities emphasize continuity and interdependence across laboratory, clinical, and community contexts. Innovative training initiatives that break down traditional silos across the broad spectrum of clinical science require flexible pedagogy and implementation.
The tenets and expectations of PCSAS are highly consistent with our training goals and methods, and we plan to maintain PCSAS accreditation indefinitely. Our clinical science training program is also due for re-accreditation by APA in 2021. We plan to maintain APA accreditation until programs accredited by PCSAS are given the same access to internship and licensure opportunities as are programs accredited by APA.
