Psychology<br />

Careers In Psychology - Psychologists are concerned with the<br />

scientific study of behavior. Psychology is a beneficial major or minor<br />

for students interested in education, business, journalism, medicine,<br />

law, social work, management, or any of the human service fields<br />

such as nursing, child care, medical technology, law enforcement or<br />

real estate. Professional positions in the field of psychology require a<br />

master’s or doctoral degree. Employment for individuals with<br />

graduate degrees will be growing in counseling, clinical and business<br />

settings. Related areas are personnel management, public relations,<br />

sports and recreation, speech pathology, educational psychology,<br />

vocational rehabilitation, gerontology, business management, and<br />

computer science. Employment in colleges and universities remains<br />

competitive.<br />

Psychology Majors - You may graduate from <strong>Phoenix</strong> <strong>College</strong> with an<br />

Associate in Arts (AA) degree, and major in psychology at a four year<br />

college or university. Psychology majors are strongly encouraged to<br />

consult with a psychology department faculty member for advisement.<br />

Transfer requirements for majors in Psychology differ at various<br />

colleges and universities. Accurate advisement now will reduce<br />

transfer problems later. In addition to specific psychology courses,<br />

psychology majors are usually required to take some courses in<br />

related areas such as mathematics, computer science, and a foreign<br />

language. General Education areas are always required. General<br />

Education areas are usually in English Composition, Oral<br />

Communication, Mathematics, Humanities and Fine Arts, Social and<br />

Behavioral Sciences, and Natural Sciences. There may be other<br />
