Experiential Learning

Practicum

Clinical practice training is essential for helping our students to develop their core competences.

Currently, HKU has over 180 Honorary Clinical Supervisors offering one-on-one clinical training in over 60 sites. All our Supervisors are working as clinical psychologists on site, including public general or psychiatric hospitals, specialist clinics, government-run or funded welfare service units, correctional institutions and other law enforcement ofﬁces, university counselling centres, etc., that provide a wide variety of direct clinical psychology services.

In-house clinical Training - Psychological Services Unit

The Psychological Services Unit (PSU), established in 1988, stems from a tested model linking service with training and is the first of its kind in Hong Kong. The Unit provides an array of specialised services within the discipline of psychology, targeted towards Hong Kong's population and organisations.

PSU functions not only as a service organisation but also as a training facility, where our postgraduate trainees in clinical psychology have the opportunity to obtain in-depth clinical training with the guidance of our teaching staff who are experienced practitioners.
