Graduate Students

Join SAMPL as a Graduate Student

Dr. Kotelnikova supervises graduate (masters and doctoral) students in the University of Alberta's School and Clinical Child Psychology (SCCP) and Counselling Psychology programs, which require a strong dedication to research and clinical training in child psychology. Most of Dr. Kotelnikova's graduate trainees are SCCP students. All applicants should review the program guidelines and our team projects to ensure a strong fit with both. Our team created an information document linked below to provide additional guidance to prospective graduate students interested in SCCP and working with Dr. Kotelnikova. We strongly recommend students review this document before reaching out to express interest! 

*Note. Dr. Kotelnikova will be accepting a masters student in SCCP with the Fall, 2027, as the start date. We are very unlikely to accept an outside applicant to the SCCP program at the doctoral level at this time.
