Grounded in the scientist\u2013practitioner model, our STEM designated degree program emphasizes how evidence-based practice and cutting-edge research come together to make a real-world impact on mental health. Students benefit from small cohorts, close mentorship, opportunities to join active research labs, and hands-on training that bridges theory to practice.<\/p>\n<p>Graduates emerge not only with advanced knowledge of clinical psychology but also with practical skills that prepare them to contribute meaningfully in community, clinical and academic settings. While this program does not qualify students for independent licensure, it equips them to thrive in supervised clinical roles and serves as a competitive stepping stone toward doctoral study.<\/p>\n<p class=\"prpl-button-row\"><span class=\"prpl-button\"><a href=\"https:\/\/graduate.montclair.edu\/apply\/\">Apply Now<\/a><\/span><span class=\"prpl-button ghost-red\"><a href=\"https:\/\/graduate.montclair.edu\/register\/grad-inquiry\">Request Info<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><aside><p><strong>Program Format<\/strong><br \/><a href=\"\/academics\/program-finder\/?modality=in-person\">In-person<\/a><\/p><p><strong>College or School<\/strong><br \/><a href=\"\/academics\/program-finder\/?college=chss\">College of Humanities and Social Sciences<\/a><\/p><p><strong>Area of Study<\/strong><br \/><a href=\"\/academics\/program-finder\/?area_of_study=health-medicine-and-the-sciences\">Health, Medicine and the Sciences<\/a>; <a href=\"\/academics\/program-finder\/?area_of_study=public-service-and-the-humanities\">Public Service and the Humanities<\/a><\/p><p><strong>Concentrations Offered<\/strong><br \/>Child\/Adolescent Psychology; Forensic Psychology<\/p><p><span class='prpl-button full-width'><a href=\"https:\/\/graduate.montclair.edu\/portal\/graduate-events\">Upcoming Admissions Events<\/a><\/span><\/p><\/aside><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<div class=\"prpl-band lt-gray no-margin\"><div class=\"text-content\">\n<div class=\"prpl-row program-page-expandables\"><div class=\"prpl-column one-third\">\n<h2>Concentration Options<\/h2>\n<p>The MA in Clinical Psychology requires students to select a concentration in either Child\/Adolescent Psychology or Forensic Psychology.
