What is the difference between the Forensic Psychology specialization and the PhD in Forensic Psychology?
The Forensic Psychology Ph.D. program is a subprogram of the CUNY Graduate Center Psychology Program. If you are interesting in earning your PhD in Forensic Psychology, you must apply to the Psychology program. If you are admitted to the Criminal Justice Doctoral program you may select forensic psychology as your specialization. The Criminal Justice Ph.D. program is geared towards teaching and research, while the Forensic Psychology Ph.D. program takes a more clinical and practitioner approach.
