Enhance Theory and Practice

The department has clinical psychology, counseling, business, and experimental psychology laboratories that provide students with hands-on practice in and out of class to help them apply theory to practice. In addition, we have a close research and teaching collaboration with the hospital attached to the Chinese Medical University, which allows students to explore their interests and feelings in helping painful souls find happiness through the service learning courses in psychology and clinical psychology internship. The year-long internship in clinical psychology allows students to apply what they have learned in the classroom to serve patients, and to reflect on the application of theories and professional skills through patient feedback and feedback from the healthcare team.
