Our students come from a number of graduate programs, often with an emphasis on child clinical, pediatric, health psychology, or acute care (experiences aligned with the track to which they are applying).
In the last five years, 100 percent of our interns have been from PhD/PsyD graduate programs. All come from graduate psychology programs accredited by the American Psychological Association. Also, all of our students have had some experience working in a medical or child diagnostic setting prior to joining our program.
Our interns report that good clinical training in child and family interventions, experience conducting child and youth assessments and training within a medical facility prepared them for quick acclimation to our program.
Each intern has a personal cubicle space in the Division of Behavioral Medicine and Clinical Psychology that is equipped with a personal laptop with docking station and printer, telephone with voice mail and filing space.
Interns also have areas within clinics and other divisions for seeing patients and charting and preparing reports. Each intern also has a digital pager. Video equipment and monitors are available, in addition to all necessary assessment and treatment materials. Some of the treatment rooms have one-way mirrors.
Interns have access to three libraries: the Pratt Research library, the University of Cincinnati Medical School library and the Division of Developmental and Behavioral Pediatrics parent and professional library. Library resources are often used for work on dissertations or literature reviews.
