Studying Psychology..... by Mindlog: 6:59pm On Mar 05, 2022
For those currently studying Psychology (undergraduate), what do you envision doing with your degree after graduation and for those who have already graduated, what are you doing with yours?

Let's share....

Presently doing my postgraduate studies in Clinical Child Psychology with the focus of also certifying as a Play therapist.

There is so much one can do with a grounded background in psychology when one apply creativity to it

Hi, I’m graduating on Monday! I completed my undergraduate degree and I will start a masters in health psychology in September. I’m working towards a career in clinical psychology but the journey is never straightforward so I’m looking forward to all the detours and new experiences ahead. Psychology is such a huge umbrella that everyone has a unique journey ahead to look forward to.

I honestly don’t know what I want to specialise in yet but I’m interested in Trauma in particular, child sexual trauma especially and I want to help people overcome this trauma at a younger age so it doesn’t ruin their adult experiences.

Which university are you heading to for your Masters? I did health psychology as a unit during my undergrad but loved these 3 units more; Psychology of Parenting, Marriage and Family Therapy, Child and Adolescent Psychology. These 3 units built my interest in going in for my postgraduate studies in clinical child psychology and still pushing to get my certification in Play therapy.

I remember back in undergrad, we covered childhood sexual trauma in Human Sexuality unit and when left unattended to by professionals, they result to sexually dysfunctional adults.

If you have achieved second class upper and above, I will encourage you to get your Graduate membership of the British Psychological Society.

That's the site link above. You can earn by playing games, watching videos, searching through the browser on the site, doing surveys which pay up to 1-5 dollars and also you can get free coupons everyday which you can redeem on the site and get some little dollars.
Just use a VPN preferablly windscribe which offers free 10gb bandwidth per month to register your account USA should be the location or better still use UK as country so you can earn in pounds instead since the pounds rate is higher than dollar (that's the mistake I made when registering on the site)
I've withdrawn payments twice as gift cards from the site but PayPal rates are higher that's why I'm trying to create a PayPal acct.
Use the link I provided to sign up and I'll guide you on how to earn your first $10 or £10 as the case maybe on the first week of your registration.
Never use Nigerian details while registering on the platform, you will be blocked... I use a Florida address, alternatively you can use Google to search for other addresses in the country you are choosing as location.
Check trustpilot to see their reviews.... I'm open for more questions

Yes, you will be eligible to apply for a job as an Assistant Psychologist after you have gotten your graduate membership of the British Psychological Society because that is a basic requirement for jobs that requires a degree in Psychology, here in the UK.

You can look into roles in Neurodevelopmental Assessments, Prisons, Education, Social Care etc.

Yes, the minimum requirement to get accredited is B.A/B.sc in psychology with a minimum of Second Class Upper as a foreign applicant, submitting your transcripts for assessment, to see if it meets the threshold....folks with 2.2 can also try it.

Studying psychology? That’s awesome! It’s such an interesting field—learning how the mind works, why people behave the way they do, and how to help them. Plus, it’s super practical. Whether it’s relationships, work, or personal growth, psicólogo infantil Zaragoza gives insights that apply everywhere. What got you into it? Curious to know!
