Finished my b.sc in psychology in 2021 and I'm looking forward to doing my masters. What is an advisable path to follow?
I'm open to navigating to other fields if possible as I don't know how employable Psychology is in Nigeria.
Any practical advice and suggestions are welcome, thanks.

Better go abroad.

Criminology perhaps

Please go and do your Master’s in Clinical Psychology. You will thank me later. I know of someone in that field that is doing very well.

Those who don't know much about their field think there aren't job opportunties around them or in their field. Psychologists work in many sectors. Though you're right when it comes to Nigeria where there aren't as much opportunies for those who studied psychology or sectors inolved with working with them. There are lots of opportunities for psychologists outside of third world countries especially in urban environments. This doesn't mean you can find opportunities too in Nigeria. This is because opportunities in more developed countries are high compared to Nigeria.

You can really help yourself by creating opportunies for yourself and even create wealth from the knowledge and expertise you have gained or acquired from your field.

Appreciate your input. Clinical psychology is attractive but indeed but pretty tedious according my lecturer in school. He did his abroad and always spoke about how demanding and tasking it was, to the extent we kind of developed a slight fear for it. But I will consider it. Thanks

Thank you.

Clinical Psychology will take you higher.
