PhD Psychology in Biological Psychopathology

5 Years On Campus Phd Program

University of Minnesota Twin Cities

Program Overview

The Department of Psychology at the University of Minnesota has a unique emphasis on biological processes in its approach to the study of abnormal behavior. Its roots go back four decades to when a behavioral genetics training program led the nation in studying the behavioral genetics of human psychopathology. This Minnesotan approach to clinical problems was formally acknowledged and expanded with the creation of the Biological Psychopathology Training Program in 1995. The goal is to produce psychologists who take a biological approach to the study of psychopathology within the conceptual framework provided by psychological science.
