PSYC403

Students will work under supervision both on-site and at Ramapo in an appropriate agency dealing with substance abuse treatment and prevention programs. Direct application of skills learned in PSYC 336 and PSYC 338 will be implemented in actual settings with clients under supervision. Class processing of clinical experiences will form major focus of the course. Like all fieldwork courses, this course requires a substantial term paper based on library research from the professional journals that is integrated with the practicum experience. Due to obligations to community agencies and their clients, admission to fieldwork placements is at the discretion of the psychology faculty. Fulfills Category 6 and fieldwork requirements. Fieldwork Insurance Fee.
