What is a Psychology Degree?

 

Psychology is the favourite science for students who want to get into the depths of human feelings. This is considered to be the science of mind and behaviour. More specifically, psychology wants to explore the way people think, act, and feel, by appealing to the emotional side of people.

Passion can lead students to choose this specialisation. It is not considered a difficult one, but it is not very easy to approach, as the theoretical elements of the discipline are combined with the practical ones.

After studying Psychology, students choose to specialise in a particular sub-field. Depending on their preference, they can choose between Biological Psychology, Cognitive Psychology, Comparative Psychology, Developmental Psychology, Personality Psychology and many others.

Benefits of a Psychology Degree

Psychology is a great opportunity to get to know each other better and to get to know others. Thus, students who are looking to understanding human behaviour, feelings and mind gain an inside vision of what these notions really mean and what determines people to make certain decisions and act under different circumstances.

The employment rate among Psychology graduates has grown in recent years. Salaries are satisfactory, and young people can focus either on psychological services in schools, hospitals, treatment centres, clinics, depending on the specialisation chosen. Furthermore, Psychology graduates can integrate a career in social media, marketing, and advertising, as they understand best the reasons why people choose to make decisions according to what they see in real life.

Psychology Degree Structure

In the four years of Bachelor studies, graduates acquire the necessary knowledge to practice Psychology, initially learning the underlying theoretical notions. These notions become an important starting point in their career, seeing later how practice blends very well with theory. It should be noted that on the labour market, students who hold a Bachelor’s degree are much more appreciated and have an advantage over those who follow simple courses.

A Master’s program usually lasts between 2 and 3 years, coming as a complement to the Bachelor’s courses. Master courses have a much more loaded curriculum and a great deal of information. A Doctoral program is dedicated to students who want to do research in Psychology in various institutes or to become teachers. This has a duration of between 5 and 7 years.

    Making (Most) Students Feel at Home

    One of the things that UNT professes itself on most is the quality of the student life on campus and the amenities provided to students. The selection of classes is rather good and they are typically taught by high quality professors; some classes are taught by grad students who don’t seem to do much in the realm of teaching material and are basically homework robots but that is to be expected for 100 level classes. The price tag at UNT is hefty but not unmanageable and the campus is attractive and easy to navigate and, as the “Mean Green” school profess itself, green. With all of this out of the way, there has been a large problem with their main selling point as of late. Many students have not felt welcome on a campus that prides itself on welcoming and embracing diversity. While on campus crime doesn’t seem to be a contributor there are people and groups who make those of us on campus who may be LGBTQ feel a little unwelcome. During my time here this hasn’t been going on for long but the university has a history of some groups being blatantly racist; those groups were banned from the campus which was a win at the time but the president doesn’t seem to be handling this most recent issue all too well. Campus police have not been treating protestors well and the president has seemingly does not want to take a side. To be honest I think this school is great and while I’ve loved my time here I don’t know how much I can endorse it with these issues still going on.
