What kind of jobs are available for someone who is majoring in psychology and math?

The best job for a double major of psychology and math is a research position at a university or college.  Believe it or not, statistics and mathematics are very important in psychology. It is important in Epidemiology, which is the scientific study of factors affecting the health and illness of populations.  This would also include mental health.  Most of the time, psychology majors have to take statisical courses as well. A double major would be great if he wants to do statistical research studies on experiments or cases. \n\nIf he wants to become a psychologist, he needs to pursue and advanced degree in psychology though.\n\nI majored in Math and considered minoring in Psychology (and took a couple of Psych classes)..but I was already minoring in another subject..so I decided to pass.  But if I were to go back and double major, I might consider doing that.  \n\nI hope this helps.

You are leaving as many doors open as possible to yourself.\nBusiness is a broad foundation of classes that are applicable to many different careers. Psychology, Math, PE, Communications or English are less applicable outside the few obvious fields. They can all be applied but to business but the core foundation and understanding of business is missing.\n\nNot that I am encouraging you to abandon another field or major that you truly love!

If you go to a public college, you have a department dedicated to working with students with disabilities (Disabled Student Services was what it was called at my alma mater).  Look in your school phone book or talk to your advisors to find them.  That office should be able to point you in the direction of a psychoeducational evaluation.  They are not obligated to pay for it at the college level.  If your school has a school psychology program, you may be able to get tested there for a greatly reduced fee than if you went to a private psychologist.  If you are found to meet the criteria for a Learning Disability in math, you'd be given accommodations to a certain extent.  You must still be able to complete your core curriculum.  For example, if you are a math education major, the accommodations you'd have to get would be inappropriate for your chosen career.\n\nIf you go to a private school, I'm not so sure, you may have to seek a private eval.  Even still, I don't know if they would provide you with services.

Imagine that you have graduated college and you need to get a job RIGHT NOW.  The pressure is on....so you have to decide, you should  look in the paper or yahoo hot-jobs under different sections and see if anything looks appealing.  The first thing you need to do is eliminate something.  There are a few basic categories of careers: Finance, business, medicine, psychology.  Many people go with psych cause it's easy and interesting to study in college (but remember  picture yourself out of college) but once you get out unless you get your PhD or become a therapist ect, there's not much you can do with that.  So then take medicine, can you see yourself as a doctor or a nurse?   Or can you see more possibilities and expansion in business or finance.  If you want to work for a company maybe you should go with business cause in business there are so many different branches that you can explore.  I hope this helps but ultimately you need to eliminate things before just choosing something.   Just get a bachelors in something broad enough to be appealing for many different companies or whatever broad field you find desirable

It really depends on what you want to do. In general, accountants deal more with data than people (although not necessarily so) and psychologists deal more with people than data (although not necessarily so). Now, there are jobs in both fields that allow you to deal more with people or data (for example, there are some psychologists who are psychometricians or interested in measurement and statistics and there are accountants who are mainly consultants and work more with clients).\n\nThere is a difference in length of education. Accountants can work with a bachelor's degree, but to be a psychologist you must have at least a masters degree, and in most states you must have a doctoral degree to work independently. Psychology is based both academic and practical experience.\n\nSince there are some differences in these two choices, have you thought about finding out more about your career interests and values? If you are a student you can go to your guidance counselor or college counseling center; adults and others can go to most community college career centers for some career counseling to help you decide.\n\nIf you haven't already, talk with a psychologist and an accountant to see what their work life is like. \n\nGood luck with your decision!

Part-time math tutor perhaps.  Usually, you can get a job doing this at your university.  Or you might get a job grading stuff.

psychology, social science, arts, or join the basketball team and make millions (something i wish i did) it's not that hard if you apply yourself and have the motivation to do well. if you start off with like 12 creds then it will be a breeze but keep in mind that you'll have to up it unless you want make college a 5 or 6 year plan instead of 4. 15 creds should be enough with some summer classes about 9. most college tests are multiple choice and are very straight forward, but this is just my exp with my college and i pick teachers (via ratmyporfessors.com) that are good at what they do or teach the power-points they provide and not just recite the book and test you on arbitrary and minuscule facts. your first semester or so (depending on your sat scores) will determine what classes you take i.e. English classes and math classes. with psy you have to take a stats class and focus around stats but this is just and aspect of psy which is not a fundamental part of the subject, you could do clinical or social psych and make a decent amount, but i/o psy makes the most but there you have to have stats knowledge (but this can be averted with spss). English or taking a foreign lang would be helpful since you would be able to teach this to others which can bring in some cash under-the-table. i hear geologist make good money but you have to take chem which if you dont like math, you might hate chem.

There are too many universities to list that offer that major.  You should go to various university websites and do some research.

I got my degree in Social Work... many more job options than psychology, but Spanish is definitely a good idea!  I was turned down for some jobs because I don't speak Spanish.  Good luck!
