Cohort Model Doctor of Psychology Program
Students meet together in small cohorts each month and attend Academic Meetings in Cincinnati, Ohio, and Brattleboro, Vermont. Students in the doctor of psychology program benefit from UI&U’s experienced psychology faculty and collaborative learning environment, developing the attitudes, knowledge, and skills they need to advance their careers.

Social Justice and Diversity Within the Doctor of Psychology Program
UI&U emphasizes social justice and diversity in all of its programs. Students in the doctor of psychology program are trained not only to assess and treat mental health problems, but also to understand and treat problems within their sociopolitical context. These include issues related to poverty, violence, substance abuse, racism, homophobia, and other forms of oppression.

Accreditation
Union Institute & University is accredited by The Higher Learning Commission and is a member of the North Central Association. The Psy.D. with a concentration in clinical psychology program’s development was guided by the American Psychological Association (APA) accreditation standards (Guidelines and Principles for Accreditation of Programs in Professional Psychology), but it is not APA-accredited. The program submited its Self-Study as an initial application to the APA Commission on Accreditation in September 2011. For more information on APA Accreditation, see Accreditation & Licensing.
