University of Colombo, Sri Lanka, invites a US Scholar to teach in its Clinical Psychology Masters program through the Fulbright scholar program for 2010-2011

The Faculty of Graduate Studies (FGS) of the University of Colombo, Sri Lanka, would like to invite a US Scholar to teach in its Clinical Psychology Masters program through the Fulbright scholar program for the academic year 2010-2011. The University of Colombo, a metropolitan university, is situated in the heart of Colombo, Sri Lanka. Hence, it provides easy access to a wide range of cultural, entertainment and business activities. The University has seven faculties, 41 departments, a campus, a school, six institutes and several centers and units.

Many undergraduate and post graduate programs are offered by the University. The Masters in Clinical Psychology program of the FGS was established in 2008 and is the first-ever post graduate course in Clinical Psychology in the country. Sri Lanka has only a handful of clinical psychologists and this program is envisaged to fulfill a great need in providing trained mental health clinicians for the country. The FGS of the University of Colombo would consider it a privilege to welcome and host a Fulbright Scholar to teach in its Clinical Psychology program. Please contact Dr Piyanjali de Zoysa (ptdz@sltnet.lk) of the University of Colombo for further details.
