In this video I touched on the subject of discrimination in applying to the doctorate. This subject is incredibly important and VAST, and merits much more time than what I was able to give. For those of you wanting to read more about the subject, here are some resources that I found really useful:

I also referenced the groups that are out there for people who identify as being from a minority group. Here are some links (though this is not at all exhaustive):

ABOUT THIS CHANNEL
Hello! These videos were filmed by Dr Miranda during her doctoral training programme. They have been shared with the aim of demystifying the DClinPsy for incoming trainee Clinical Psychologists, making it all seem a little less scary, and hopefully making you smile along the way :)
