TRANSFER CURRICULUM GUIDE Long Beach City College ============================================================================================ PSYCHOLOGY CAREER INFORMATION Psychology is a study in human behavior. Psychologists study and diagnose problems and emotional or mental disorders. Some may set up laboratory tests, while others are involved in counseling. A doctoral degree is usually required for employment as a licensed clinical or counseling child psychologist. Those with a Ph.D. qualify for a wide range of teaching, research, clinical and counseling positions in universities, elementary and secondary schools, private industry and government. Those with a master s degree in psychology often work as school psychologists, psychological assistants, and conduct research or psychological evaluations. A bachelor s degree in psychology qualifies a person to assist psychologists in community mental health centers, and correctional programs. All states require psychologists to have a license. The Occupational Outlook Handbook reports a starting salary for Psychologists holding a bachelor s degree to be $19,500; while those with a master s degree could earn a yearly salary of $29,600; and a Ph.D. degree could earn $35,800. It is possible to earn more in private practice. GENERAL INFORMATION Not all universities with this major are listed below.
