Psychology.  It's harder but there are more job options.  Sociology can lead to research jobs or being an academic.  In addition to these kinds of jobs, psychology can lead you to a wider range of jobs including being a psychologist.\n\nHowever, you wont be happy unless you enjoy what you do.  If you prefer the content of sociology, go for it.  Good luck!

It depends on what you mean, do you mean really which one is better or just which one is popular.\nWhatever you like to do is the best degree for you. Since you like your job, you won't whine about your it, and will be the most creative and productive.

John Jay is outstanding. Be sure you know what you want. Criminology is a study within sociology. Criminal Justice is a broader area of study. If you want to be a cop, consider taking something that will help you later along in your career such as business or language. Almost every college has a criminal justice program, not that many are strictly criminology. The University of Missouri St. Louis has a good one too.

Social Work is better. You have a chance to help people stand a better chance at become more productive. Pay may not be good but the morality benefits outwiegh that.

Yes, if you have a passion for the field and are good at it. Otherwise, I'd suggest other ways to earn money.\nBe sure to distinguish between a psychiatrist and psychologist. A psychiatrist is a medical doctor first, and is able (and often willing) to prescribe drugs as a part of therapy.\nA psychologist specializes more in cognitive or behavioral treatments, and typically is not able to prescribe drugs.\nMonetarily, psychiatrists are likely to earn significantly more in their careers. As far as happiness, I think you will find that both psychiatrists and psychologists enjoy the challenge of making a difference in people's lives.

I love psychology, but you're right about the amount of reading at first. It gets easier later on, though, because you know most of the stuff from the other courses you've already taken. And you get to do research as an undergrad if you're lucky! I also liked microbiology, anatomy, English composition, calculus, and statistics.

Go where your passion is.  You'll never be happy in life if you get a degree in a field that you hate.  Than again, you don't want to get a degree in a field that is being heavily outsourced, such as computer engineering.  But, psychologists are always going to be in demand, so go for it.

Your major is Child Psychology. Just like I have my BA in Psychology, Psychology was my major. Regarding the BA and the BSC it depends on what your university offers. If they offer both you can chose if they only offer one you need to take that one.

One of the social sciences would be your best choice, either Anthropology or Sociology, with a preference for Anthro. One of the four main sub-divisions of Anthro is Linguistics, just what you are looking for.

Right now I am doing a master's in psychology after a Bachelors psychology first, Sociology second. \nPart of my strategy is to take a low paid job right after graduation. It will give me a work history and provide the basis for better later on.\nThe  £11,124 may not be the best, but it is a good start. Like Ollie said, depends on where you live. In spite of taxes taking a huge bite, as noted by Bob, it is still a starting place. You may not be there too long.\nWhen a better situation comes along you will be more likely to be hired than only with your Masters.\nMe so far:\nTutoring Social and Physical Sciences\nEnglish and ESL\nPrivate coaching and mentoring, academic and lifestyle choices.\nThis goes on vita, and how I have my career roughly charted out.\nSo good luck,\nCharles James

Well, I completed my B.A in psychology and am making diddly squat in my job. (i live in canada). There are too many people taking this degree, so it is really hard to get into graduate school. And with just the B.A, jobs are pretty scarce, as psychology is not an edcuation that "trains" you for any particular job. I am currently doing a social work degree, just to be able to actually have a "career". If you want to be a counsellor, have to have a masters or doctorate. As for the comment someone wrote about the behaviour therapists making tons of money, i am an ABA therapist, and make $500 every 2 weeks (for 30 hours/week), that is nothing compared to most with university degrees. I could make more at walmart. . but i feel like going for such employment is a "waste" of my education. However, i needed such employment to apply to other schools, but remember, most grad schools in psychology fields take like 20 students per year at the MOST...dont mean to discourage you, but just because the degree is very interesting, doesnt mean it would be a good choice. Do it as a minor if you really want to do it.

STAY IN SCHOOL! You will need all the education you can get. Because last time I checked, there are no jobs in 'pyscology'. I would not want you as my Psychologist if you can't even spell it OR FIND THE SPELL CHECK button!

Neuropsych is good, but it almost sounds like you are interested in neuroscience (hint when you look at this: many universities have seperate neuroscience and psychology departments)

I think you should probably major in pre-law or criminal justice with a minor in psychology. I know at my college some of the psychology courses are required for pre-law majors. But before you make a definite decision you should probably schedule an appointment with the Dean or Chairperson of the law department, tell them what you would like to do, and ask their opinion on what type of courseload you should take. Hope this helps you out!!!!

The best answer that can be given is that it is really up to you and it really depends on what you like and what you want to do with your life.  I dont think your in college by the way you sound and I took several psychology classes and personally, I find them very interesting.  Counseling kind of ties into psychology, and so does sociology.  Liberal studies are overall studies.  If you major in liberal arts, you will take a few classes of every subject.  Human resources, or human services is a major in which you can learn, and have to take, classes in all of these areas.  Good Luck!!!

Degree in Sociology or Social Science or Social Welfare.

In my experience, a BA in Social Science isn't useful on it's own, except for a school teacher.  You would need a Master's degree in something more specific (Clinical Psychology, Counseling, Social Work) to really get anywhere.\n\nI recommend doing a career counseling program.  A good one involves psychological tests, lots of reading and studying about potential careers, and answering hard questions about yourself.  That will help with future plans.
