Palo Alto University has built its reputation by focusing on psychology and hiring some of the best faculty in the US.  Our faculty has been ranked as one of the most productive clinical psychology faculty in the country.  Combined with an emphasis of applying the theoretical knowledge to help others, our students receive the knowledge and skills necessary to make a difference in people’s lives.

One of the distinctive characteristics of PAU is its openness to collaborations.  We have domestic partners (Stanford Medical School, University of San Francisco, Golden Gate University) and international partners (Aigle Institute in Argentina, Fudan University in China).  We are open to productive partnerships with institutions in India.
