Although the tracks are distinct, opportunities exist to engage with material outside one’s track (through courses, workshops, and research collaborations) if it serves a student’s individualized goals.Our comprehensive training ensures that graduates are well-prepared to excel in a variety of settings – both academic and clinical – as well as to work with a wide range of individuals, families, communities, and organizations. In fact, our training program is regularly counted amongst the best in North America.Our faculty members are involved in research spanning the entire lifespan and encompassing diverse topics such as neuropsychology of executive functions, , immigrant adaptation and family relationships, traumatic brain injury, age-associated cognitive disorders, and interpersonal violence, to name just a few.
