1 7 II. Graduate Curricula and Degree Programs A. 1. Scope of programs within the department The scope of the doctoral programs in psychology is discussed in the Introduction, under Scope and Recent Changes in the Department of. An extremely brief summary would include the following points: We have the largest doctoral program of any department on campus, with 119 current doctoral students in clinical, counseling, or experimental psychology. Our doctoral programs are successful, in terms of such factors as recruiting strong graduate students, educating them effectively, funding them successfully, graduating them in a reasonable period of time, helping them to find appropriate post-doctoral employment, and continuing to collaborate with them regarding teaching, research, and service. Our faculty, graduate student TAs/RAs, and staff are effective in terms of meeting the university missions of excellence in teaching, research, service, ethical development, and community contribution. We are committed to excellence in every possible way. We are a very good doctoral program that is always trying to be even better. We could, of course, greatly benefit our scope and positive impact, from increased resources in certain areas. This would help us to grow our already-large doctoral programs. The most obvious areas that would help in this regard are increases in TA funding, space, M&O budget, faculty, and staff. 2. Expected learning outcomes and outcomes assessment. Include typical degree plan/program of study. The Department of is engaging in an extensive effort to further define, assess, and improve our learning outcomes. An example, from many possible examples, of this effort is the following competency form (see Appendix G) used for practicum in counseling psychology: Counseling Program Practicum Student Evaluation and Competency Form. Further examples of such competency assessment may be found in the attached Handbooks. This is an area of rapid development, frequent enhancement, and recent modification. Therefore, much more information about this matter will be available in further reports and reviews, a few years down the road. We should also note that the American Psychological Association s Commission on Accreditation is interested in this matter, and thus it will also be considered in future APA reports, reviews, and site visits of our doctoral programs in clinical and counseling psychology.
