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 />
