Acadia's graduate programme in clinical psychology leads to a Master of Pure & Applied Science and follows the Boulder Scientist-Practitioner model, integrating science and practice. Students are trained by PhD-level clinical psychologists in evidence-based interventions for people with mental health concerns or cognitive difficulties, with practicum placements at regional health centres and private practices. It is one of the few clinical master's programmes in Canada leading to eligibility for registration as a clinical psychologist.
