This page is intended to provide a starting place for students who are interested in pursuing specialized training in psychotic spectrum disorders at the graduate level and beyond. Each of the training programs listed on our spreadsheet have publicly identified themselves as opportunities to learn about the assessment and treatment of psychotic spectrum disorders in a variety of settings. Each program name links to the program website, and specifically, to the track or research group with relevant interests. We have attempted to keep this spreadsheet updated yearly, with what additional information we could gleam from prospective professors. For additional information, please review the program website and contact the program director/faculty representative. If you are a PASS-SIG Student Member (membership is free for students!), please contact the Student Outreach Organizer to inquire if any current PASS-SIG members have relationships with program faculty, students, or alumni.
Disclaimer: The PASS-SIG does not endorse or certify the following training programs in any way. This list is merely a compilation of training programs PASS-SIG members have observed to publicly advertise themselves as providing specialized training in assessment and treatment of psychosis and psychotic spectrum disorders. If you believe this list has an error, by omission or inclusion, or requires an update (e.g., a faculty member changes universities) please contact both the website moderator and the SIG president. Please note, the spreadsheet has multiple tabs, depending on whether you are interested in graduate school, internship, or a postdoctoral fellowship.
