Clinical Fellowships
Welcome to the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioural Neurosciences (DPBN) at McMaster University, located at the St. Joseph’s Healthcare Hamilton, West 5th Campus.
The DPBN Clinical Fellowships Program offers a wide variety of Clinical Fellowships with excellent, dedicated clinical supervisors and teachers. Our Clinical Fellowships are primarily located in Hamilton and, depending on the Clinical Fellowship, they are situated in a hospital or community setting, or both.
Clinical Fellowship programs commence on July 1st each year and end on June 30th (the academic year). Clinical Fellowships are offered for one year, with the option to extend to a second year, when available and upon approval by the corresponding Clinical Fellowship Program Director and the Department Clinical Fellowships Director.
