Overview

The Clinical Psychology program at George Mason University emphasizes theoretically informed, applied research that is capable of producing results with meaningful implications for positive change at the level of the individual, family, and community. Our goal is to train clinical psychologists who are capable of integrating research and applied clinical activities, and do so through hands on research in our labs under the guidance of clinical psychologists who have extensive experience in their field. 

We provide rigorous training in scientific methods and clinical activities, with an emphasis on those that are informed by empirical research. Students in this concentration are expected to take part in that research, and will receive hands experience in conducting research under real world circumstances.
