The University of Texas at Austin is home to one of the longest continuously accredited APA approved Counseling Psychology programs in the country. Our scientist-practitioner based program prepares Ph.D. psychologists to work with both specific and general problems of human behavior in the context of a range of social processes and systems. We strive to prepare students for innovative professional and intellectual careers within the fields of social science, human service, or social and community endeavors. We hope reviewing this page gives you a sense of our program strengths, including our commitment to diversity and range of training settings, theoretical perspectives, and research opportunities.
