Psy.D. Program Achieves 100% Placement Rate for Pre-Doctoral Internship

Share

The Doctor of Clinical Psychology (Psy.D.) program at Marshall University proudly announces a 100% placement rate for all students who participated in the pre-doctoral internship match process. These dedicated students have secured placements in various mental health settings across the nation, where they will spend a full year providing essential mental health services at their assigned sites.

Dr. Keith Beard, the PsyD Program Director, said the milestone is significant.

“The pre-doctoral internship is the final training experience for our students before graduation, akin to a physician’s residency,” Beard said. “Our students have already completed three year-long practicums at our campus clinic, community placements, and integrated primary care settings. Now, they will represent Marshall University nationwide as they embark on this internship journey.”

Key Highlights:

  • 100% Match Rate: Despite intense competition, every Marshall student secured an internship site.
