Clinical Neuropsychology Residency

The Department of Psychiatry offers a two-year residency in clinical neuropsychology, designed to prepare residents for independent practice and ABPP-ABCN board certification. The program was founded in 1997 and has been APPCN-affiliated since 2004. The program is staffed by adult and pediatric faculty, appointed across the Departments of Psychiatry and Neurology, functioning collectively within the discipline of neuropsychology. It is comprised of an Adult Track and Pediatric Track, with residents sharing workspace areas, attending lifespan neuropsychology didactics together and jointly participating in the program’s professional development series.

The neuropsychology program is located at the IU Health Neuroscience Center, which is part of the larger IU Health campus in downtown Indianapolis. Most outpatient and didactic activities occur at this location, with pediatric residents completing multidisciplinary rotations at Riley Hospital for Children at IU Health.

Salary is $54,840 for the first year and $55,224 for the second year. 

Benefits are offered at no cost to the resident and include:

• Family health insurance
• Vision and dental insurance
• Life insurance
• Disability insurance
• Malpractice insurance
• Free campus parking

Benefits also include 15 personal vacation days (plus three professional days) in the first year, and 20 vacation days (plus five professional days) in the second year. These are in addition to nine standard IU holidays.

Professional funds total $3,000 across the entirety of the two-year residency.

The adult track typically recruits two residents and the pediatric track one resident annually. Preferred applicants are doctoral candidates in an APA-accredited graduate program in clinical, counseling, or school psychology, and are currently completing an APA-accredited internship. Applicants must participate in the APPCN-affiliated National Matching Service.
