I watched on the Internet that there are many questions about the psychology, fields of study and where we can pursue the career, so I decided to make this input.
First of all we must talk about the vocation, have to like the race to practice. It is a very important race here do not play with a pencil and paper and wood or concrete, here playing with the minds of people in mental health.
To study only takes the desire and a good college, but what of the good university can pass background. If you really like the race going to be good (a) and the curses in the "worst" university in your country. Careers
are many, the psychologist is not just the guy who is sitting at his desk in the office, the psychologist can work in a company, in a football team, in scientific laboratories, the police, in a school or university (as a mentor or teaching, etc.).
fields of study and its applications are many and the write below
• Clinical Psychology: diagnose and treat problems. In practice, clinical psychologists working in a similar way the psychiatrist as both deal with disturbed patients, the difference is that the prescription psychiatrist and clinical psychologist not. Usually they get in schools and universities, but as is the branch of psychology wider can work in virtually the same sites of the other majors.
• Educational Psychology and education: working directly with children, adolescents, teachers and parents to help get the most out of their school years. Ahem. Mental retardation, learning disabilities, etc.
• Experimental Psychology: empty studying psychological processes such as sensation, perception, learning, memory, knowledge, motivation and emotion.
• industrial psychology, is concerned with making work more comfortable and productive for both the worker for the company sa. Example: recruitment, ergonomics, psychological testing, expertise in labor law, consumer psychology.
• Social Psychology: use knowledge to solve problems in public relations, advertising, communities composed of members of different ethnic backgrounds in the workplace and in situations where people interact.
• Forensic psychology, involved in the field legal and expert witnesses within a multidisciplinary team and in lawsuits, surveys conducted at mental health, knowledge of laws. Study the profile of the accused, victims, perform psychological autopsies, criminology, etc.
As you can see fields of study and work opportunities are vast and I missed several to place, but there are and if you plan to study psychology because I hope this helps you to decide, but study it only if you're sure (a) to do so because dealing with the mind of others is not a game and get ready because there muuuchoooo to read. =)
