The program is planned for five years. There are three or four years
of course work, with years two and three involving formal clinical
practicum experience. Required research projects include a first-year
project, a second-year project, and a doctoral dissertation. A year's
internship is usually taken during the sixth year. Data for the doctoral
dissertation must be collected prior to the internship.
