Clinical Psychology Term at Knox College

An
integral part of the Knox curriculum is the idea of "experiential
learning," (learning by doing) and one of the psychology department's
most unique offerings for experiential learning is Clinical Term.
Students interested in the areas of clinical psychology,
counseling psychology or social work can spend a term immersing
themselves in the field by taking two courses, (PSYC 277, Clinical and
Abnormal Psychology, and PSYC 279, Counseling Processes), while
simultaneously completing an internship in the Galesburg area that is
related to clinical psychology. In Clinical Term, you'll gain
an increased knowledge of clinical psychology through the integration
of academic information and assignments in the two classes with the
hands-on experience of working in settings typical of clinical
psychologists, counselors and social workers. Students in the program
have worked with the chronically mentally ill, the developmentally
disabled, families and children experiencing a variety of difficulties
in adjustment, and women and children who are the victims of domestic
abuse.
