Employment prospects of graduates majoring in psychology The following are some answers from graduates majoring in psychology that I have compiled. The specific contents are as follows:
Zhang Yi's answer: I think the prospect is quite good, but you can't live in that "prospect". The employment of psychology major in China can be divided into education and training, prison public security, hospitals and individual psychological clinics. It can be said that these are more difficult than one. I don't deny that my original intention of studying psychology was to exchange a little effort (talk) for a high return. Now I know it's very naive.
Cheng Yinan's answer: the undergraduate majoring in psychology in the United States came to report the situation. Last semester, one of my professors Daniel asked such a question in class: "What can I do after graduating from psychology?" Students here look at me and I look at you, showing that kind of embarrassed smile when everyone is usually asked this question. The professor said, "We can hardly do anything. We can't be called doctors. We can't do accounting. We don't know anything about engineering. . . But we are still a little better than those who study literature. " Everyone burst into laughter.
What has psychology taught you? Taught you Critical Thinking, speculation. What is speculation? It is the ability to examine an idea, to evaluate a plan and to solve a problem. With this, although we can't build bridges and keep accounts, no matter what the world becomes, our brains can still function normally and still help us to act correctly and live soberly. Whenever and wherever, we can accept new things, improve old things and find wrong things.
Zeng Juchen's answer: There are three things that can be done in the field of psychology. The first is to do research, which is generally an area where super academic elites can make contributions.
The second is individual application. Here, we have to talk about the therapists of psychoanalysis schools, including those who have obtained doctoral degrees abroad. Many psychoanalytic therapists believe that their own set is effective, and their clients also believe that set is effective.
