Education
The Family Institute is an independent affiliate of Northwestern University and operates the University's Center for Applied Psychological and Family Studies, including two graduate programs with degrees conferred by The Graduate School of Northwestern University:
Both graduate programs prepare students for careers as mental health professionals and include comprehensive academic curricula from Northwestern University and intensive, supervised clinical training components. Because The Family Institute is also a psychotherapy treatment center, many students receive hands-on clinical training and may fulfill their clinical practicum requirements by seeing clients through our Bette D. Harris Family and Child Clinic and/or the Community Outreach Program.
Each year, students with a broad range of ages, varied life experiences and professional and academic degree backgrounds are accepted into both programs. With small interactive classes taught by nationally-recognized Northwestern University faculty, both programs offer students unparalleled training and opportunities to achieve their unique professional goals in a collegial atmosphere..
