Sophia10 Posted May 8, 2017 Posted May 8, 2017 Hi,I am undergoing the degree of Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from CBU online.Just wanted to get some suggestions about the job opportunities that I may get after completion of this course.All the suggestions are welcomed and references as well.Regards
Function Posted May 8, 2017 Posted May 8, 2017 Am I the only one who finds it a problem that it's a BA and not a BS? In Belgium, it's a BS in Psychology ... That aside, there's tons of opportunities ... But ... I'd advise you to get a Master in Psychology, too. Why stop at a bachelor's degree? Psychology is a wonderful science and there's few other sciences that give the satisfaction psychology does when known well enough and when mastered. But don't let me push you into something. You could indeed already start finding work, but I'm not sure if you're legally allowed to call yourself a psychologist after you get a BA? I'm not entirely sure, but my guess would be you'd have to get a master in psychology before you could be certified as a psychologist, in Belgium, that is (still, not sure). There's lots of opportunities: you could specialise in clinical psychology, experimental psychology, ... The old adagio goes that Google is your best friend. I think that also for this problem, you'd best Google your question a first time and come back when you have and should have more questions ... Welcome to the Science Forums.

Typically both have similar or the same core curriculum, but differ in their electives. The BS tend to be more concentrated and has more connections with e.g. neuroscience. The BA tends to be broader and less geared toward psychological research but can be a side aspect in other disciplines (e,g, marketing). 1
