Congratulations to everyone involved with the Master of Science in Clinical Psychopharmacology (MSCP) program at ISU!  The program has been granted American Psychological Association (APA) designation. This is the 4th program in the country to achieve APA designation, which is recognition that ISU’s education and training program meets the highest level of academic and training standards.

The MSCP program is a post-doctoral program designed to provide licensed psychologists with training in the use of medication as part of the treatment of psychological disorders. Students must be licensed psychologists who have already earned a doctoral degree in psychology from an accredited program and institution.

Idaho was the 5th state in the nation to allow prescription privileges for specially-trained psychologists.
