Here at Utica College we have a separate program (i.e., separate from Psychology) in Psychology/Child Life (although they do take a number of our courses as part of their major). In fact, it is now a Master's program. Prior to coming to UC, I had not heard of such a thing. It has it's own professional organization and accrediting body. It is also in fairly high demand here, in terms of student interests.
