2006-2007 Graduate Handbook
Welcome
Welcome to the child psychology program at
the University of Minnesota! This handbook brings
together general and specific information of use to graduate
students in child psychology.
The handbook is designed to answer most questions about the
formal aspects of the institute and its instructional program.
Students are strongly urged to keep it for immediate and future
reference, rather than attempting to assimilate all the
information at one time. Most of the information in this
handbook deals with the general Ph.D. program in Child
Psychology. Students enrolled in joint programs (School
Psychology, Developmental Psychology and Clinical Science) must
also be guided by the information provided by their joint
program.
According to the Harvard Rule, students are held to academic
requirements in place when they enter the ICD Ph.D. program.
This handbook is therefore of particular relevance to students
entering the institute fall 2006. If changes in requirements are
enacted during a student's tenure, he or she has the option to
choose between the old and the revised with one notable
exception; students in the DPCS program are governed by the
policies and procedures related to that program as written in
the most current handbook for the clinical program.
If anything is unclear or if you have other questions do not
hesitate to ask me, another faculty member, Danielle Bordeleau,
or an advanced graduate student.
Sincerely,
Michael Maratsos
Director of Graduate Studies
