Cool facts about psychology
It takes at least 6-years to become a generalist psychologist and another 2 – 4 years to become a specialist.
You can study a psychology major within a degree that is focused on your interests – such as health, humanities, science, business etc.
In some degrees you can study a second specialisation. Examples of study areas include criminology, disability studies, marketing, neuroscience, health promotion, nutrition etc.
There is maths in psychology degrees such as statistics and correlation! It’s highly advisable to study senior level maths at school.
If you don’t want to become a psychologist, you can complete an undergraduate degree with a psychology major and then complete graduate studies in an area that’s focussed on human behaviour – such as social work, career development/counselling, marketing, human resource management, criminology etc.
