Program Description

The Doctor of Psychology (PhD, DPsy) goal is to prepare students for the general practice of professional clinical psychology including education and training regarding the broader social and systemic factors that contribute to human dysfunction such as poverty, oppression, and marginalization. The program will help students develop evaluation techniques and assessment, psychological foundations, remediation and intervention procedures, and program evaluation and research. The Psychology program is designed to advance the professional development of experienced psychology graduates and professionals in the psychology arena by extending their knowledge and equipping them with broad research and process psychology skills, enabling them to make a key leadership contribution to their chosen fields.

AIU’s Doctorate degree in Psychology goes one step further by allowing students to study and research multiple key areas of computer science to develop a unique foundation of practical knowledge and computer science theory. Your AIU Distance Learning Doctorate program in Psychology will be a custom-made program, designed just for you by you and your advisor. This flexibility to meet your needs is seldom found in other distance learning programs. Our program does not require every student to study the same subjects and use the same books and other learning materials as every other student. Instead our online Doctoral programs are designed just for you. They are individually designed to meet your needs and help you to reach your professional and personal goals.

Student Testimonials

  • During the course I found them to be flexible and understanding as I like the idea of a personalize curriculum that helps the student choose for himself the area he wants to venture into. The academic work is less stressful but full of content and resources for referencing. I found the library very accessible and the staff very humble and hospitable Words cannot express the way I feel about the achievement.

  • [...] It is worth mentioning that the experience I gained from AIU equipped me with vast knowledge on how to work in diverse situations and with people from various religious and cultural backgrounds. In addition to that, it placed me in a better position to advice on issues at the higher level of strategic management; training at all levels, and to provide guidance and supervision. Therefore, I will continue to uphold the value of AIU and recommend others to continue their studies at this University.

  • I learnt my lessons from that time. In short, Plagiarism is not accepted at AIU. Since that time, I have learnt to do every assignment by myself and own way. That experience alone brought out the CAN DO spirit in me. Now I see myself a refined individual who is able to take up challenges – thanks to AIU. Along the way, I lost my job and so could not pay my tuition balance to graduate. I was heartbroken! I kept asking myself if I was going to throw away what I started, but thank God I managed to pull some funds to complete payment.
