Curriculum

The summer program consists of three components:

  • Research: Participants work with faculty and graduate students in the clinical, counseling, and school psychology programs on research projects.
  • Clinical: Participants are placed with a tribal healthcare or social services agency one to two days per week and given the opportunity to shadow psychologists, social workers, and other professionals who provide direct services to Indian peoples.
  • Professional Development: Participants attend weekly seminars on subjects ranging from ethics to research design to tribal law. Guest speakers from around the state and the nation are brought in to lecture and discuss with participants about topics relative to American Indian Psychology.
