Department of Education and Clinical Psychology

The Department of Education and Clinical Psychology is dedicated to training graduates to support and assist others while contributing to character formation and care through the comprehensive study of the two fields of education and clinical psychology.

To that end, students study knowledge and techniques in pedagogy and clinical psychology, including subjects such as mental health, stress management, self-understanding, lifelong learning, and career development.

Starting during their second year, students choose from three courses―Teacher, Certified Clinical Psychologist, and Career Design―and then focus their studies on more specialized and practical theory and skills based on their chosen future career. Each model offers internship opportunities in such settings as schools, hospitals and social welfare facilities where clinical psychology is practiced, and private-sector companies and NPOs. The Department's goal is to prepare students to thrive in society while taking advantage of comprehensive, practical skills using the knowledge and techniques of pedagogy and clinical psychology.
