Program Outcome
We evaluate the program’s success in reaching it’s goals based on student’s performance on practica, internships, courses, clinic work and research, as well as yearly student surveys.
Among the recent (graduating since 2001, not including the past 2 years) Ph.D. graduates from our program, approximately 96% (23/24) are licensed. 29% (7/24) are teaching in Universities, such as Wilfred Laurier University, York University, and University of Hong Kong. About 54% (13/24) have primary employment in institutional settings (e.g. hospitals, etc.). Many (46%, 6/13) of those employed in institutional settings also have adjunct professorships. Roughly 42% (10/24) of our graduates have their primary employment in private practice.
Our program emphasizes research and clinical work. Our current graduate students have an average of 5 conference presentations, and 2 publications. As well, they will accumulate at least 2400 hours of clinical work by the time they complete our program.
In the last seven years, 4 students have left the Clinical program at the University of Waterloo without completing their degree. 2 left the program after obtaining a Master's degree, and 2 left after their first year of studies.
