The Master of Clinical Psychology and Doctor of Philosophy (MCP/PhD) will open the doors to both a professional and research career in clinical psychology. The degree’s combination of clinical and doctorate-level research training will enable you to work around the world as a psychologist.

The MCP/PhD is ideal if you want to become a qualified clinical psychologist, but are also interested in a path into research or academia. In this double degree you will complete the coursework program, the Master of Clinical Psychology (MCP), as well as a Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) research thesis. 

The four-and-a-half-year course is structured so that MCP coursework is completed over the first three years (1st year is full-time MCP; 2nd and 3rd years are concurrent MCP part-time and PhD full-time) and the remaining three semesters are for full-time PhD studies.

Like the MCP program, the MCP/PhD includes a minimum of 1200 hours of clinical placements. These will be done both in our on-campus Psychology Clinic as well as in outstanding teaching hospitals like Westmead Hospital and the Children’s Hospital at Westmead. And, with careful selection of clinical placements and additional clinical placements hours, MCP/PhD graduates can meet UK, European, US and Canadian standards.
