It all depends. Partially it depends on what your specialization in your masters is. You can become a licensed and practicing clinical psychologist if you choose to study clinical psychology. You can take more of a research angle and go into project management, marketing research, or even political research (to name a few). Certainly with a focus on development and a teaching certificate in many states you could become a teacher. You could work in child care or youth development programs. Psychology is really broad and there are various specializations and applications for the knowledge you gain in a master's program. I'd encourage you to think further about what interests you about psychology and what you'd like to do long term/career-wise.

I think it depends on what field of psychology you envision yourself wanting to do. \n\nIn general, a biology class can help when you get into structure of the brain, nervous system, etc. If you plan on going into neuropsych, look at courses like biology, chemistry, anatomy/physiology for the future.\n\nThe way my undergrad psych program was set up, the only required courses were Intro, Intro to Statistics, and Experimental Psych. Everything else was up to you, because of all of the different subject areas... sports psych, developmental, I/O, sexuality, adolescent, cognitive, sensation/ perception, personality... and the list goes on.\n\nMost graduate degrees in psychology have a strong research component (esp. if you are required to do a thesis/ dissertation) so if you are thinking that route, get comfy with research methodology and statistics. Test and Measurements is also a good course to catch in undergrad if you can.\n\nYou should have a degree advisor within your major dept. that you can talk to for planning your course of study in regards to what you want to do later on. \n\nA sidenote if you are thinking about counseling/ psychotherapy... you might want to look at a Counseling degree/ LPC program and see if that might be what you are looking for as well.

Depending on your location there can be several things. You could be a psychometrist and "test" people and children for learning problems.  A Masters degree allows for registration in various professional organizations.  You could also teach with a Masters degree.

There's too many to list.\nHere is the American Psychological Association's Division list.  That should give you a good idea of the different fields.

There are management jobs in companies such as Human Resource that accepts a degree in Psychology/Sociology because it deals with people, the most valuable resource for any company.  You should try applying for those jobs instead of just looking specifically in the Psychology field.  Teaching is also great if you have that degree, you can get a teacher's license by simply attending a community college.  Lastly, you can also join the military where the possibilities is endless.  You can work as a military member or a civil service and both offers tuition assistance on top of your paycheck.

I don't know what country you're in, but in america you pick your profession in college and pursue streams there too :)\n\nBut I'll assume you mean, what courses should you take to broaden your understanding later on in college psych.\n\nwell these will help A Lot!\n-biology (they say biology before psychology.. and you will need it, trust me)\n-philosophy (really makes you question things, which will help when you need to do independent research)\n-math/stats (you're going to have to take it in college for psychology, so take general stat couses now, so that psych stat will be a breeze)\n-social studies/history/anthropology courses (really help in the long run, once you are a psychologist, gives you a deeper understanding of you patients)\n-language courses (more clients if you can speak other languages fluently)

For a clinical psychologist, you would major in psychology in college then go on to your masters and folow that with a doctorate (PhD).  You woul dneed to focus on your core courses for this degree which would be like child development, abnormal psychology, etc.  You would also have your general education requirements which you get at any college where you pursue a bachelor's degree\n\nTo be a Psychiatrist, you MUST go to medical school (4 years).  For undergrad, you should major in a pre-med program or something in the sciences.  You could also major in psychology, but you need certain core courses in order to be able to get into a medical school.  Also, you have to take the Medical College Admissions Test (MCAT) before you can get into med school.  This test is very science heacy with some reading sections.  It is difficult, but taking the science courses throughout college will help you.  After you finish your medical school education you have to do your internship and residency which for a psychiatrist is I think 4-6 years after medical school. \n\nYou should get online to different medical school websites to check out their admission requirements which will give you a better idea of what you may be interested in. \n\nAs far as who makes more, in general psychiatrists would make more.  But this is heavily dependent on where you work, and how good you are at what you do.  I know psychologists who make more than some psychiatrists, but this isn't the norm.  Psychiatrists usually make more.\n\nHope this helps and good luck to you in your future decisions and career!

I dont know what is the best school for psychology, but I can tell you the difference between undergrad and grad school.\n\nIn undergrad you earn your bachelor's degree (a BA or BS).  After you have your BA/BS you apply for grad school and there you can earn a Masters or a PhD.  If you plan to counsel you will need to get at least a Masters, but most likely a PhD.  This will entitle you to call yourself Doctor, and will require at least 6-7 years of school.  \n\nIf you want to be a Psychiatrist, you will need to get your BA or BS, then go to medical school and get your MD, and then spend time in a psychiatric residency.  \n\nThe difference between a psychologist and a psychiatrist, is the amount of time spent with patients and the ability to prescribe medications.  A psychiatrist can prescribe medications and the average appointment time is about 7 minutes (I know a psychiatrist and he actually did a study of this).  A psychologist cannot prescribe medications, but spends much more time with their patients.  They are the ones who really counsel patients.

In the US, the only jobs in psychology require either a Master's degree or Doctorate.\n\nA master's degree will let you be a Social Worker, which is very hard work for low pay.\n\nA Ph.D. will let you be a Psychologist.  Big money, if you're good.  \n\nA bachelor's degree in Psych is like underwater basket-weaving.  Don't even bother if you're not pursuing an advanced degree.

I've already answered someone who is having a hard time getting a good job with a BA in Psych. I have a BA in Psychology and it is kind of hard to find a job. Most of the time people will go to grad school. But, as for me, I started work w/ an insurance company which sucks big time! There are some jobs out there (marketing, insurance, business, etc.) that just require a BA and don't care what the major is. A lot of customer service oriented jobs want Psych as they figure you know about how to deal with people. There are also a lot of non profits out there that hire. They don't pay that much, but it's good experience and you help people. I live in LA and I find that a lot of these non profits require or a least prefer bilingual (Spanish/English).

Ironically, a B.S. in psych qualifies you for almost any job in the world except one in the field of psychology. For that, you'll need at least an M.S. but preferrably a Ph.D.

You can do many things - there are many, many different types of psychologists:\nClinical - dealing with mentally ill/deviant(ha) people\nEducational - dealing with the school environment\nResearch - researching the human/animal mind\nIndustrial - figuring out how to market to the masses ......\n\nThe list goes on.  With psychology you can pretty much just pick what you like/what drives you and go for it ...
