Briefly describe in narrative form important information to assist potential applicants in assessing their likely fit with your program. This description must be consistent with the program’s policies on intern selection and practicum and academic preparation requirements: 

The primary aim of the program is to train interns in the profession-wide competencies needed to be a skilled psychologist working with children, adolescents, emerging adults, and families in a medical setting. Additionally, multicultural/diversity issues, ethical practice, interpersonal skills, and professional behavior are addressed during the training year. There are two psychology internship positions. We offer two tracks: one in Pediatric Psychology and the other in Pediatric Neuropsychology. Both interns will receive training in assessment, working in outpatient medical clinics, and outpatient therapy. Applicants must come from APA-accredited programs. Selection criteria include many other factors.
