Psychology Degrees
Many
people looking to enter the social services
will have an undergraduate degree in psychology.
Psychology is the study of the brain and behavior
that is caused by brain functions. Those who
earn an undergraduate degree in psychology typically
need to earn an advanced degree as well in order
to become a practicing psychologist who offers
therapy to patients. Some who major in psychology
move on to medical school to become a psychiatrist,
who can prescribe medicine to patients, and
undergo a series of classes designed to help
them understand the science behind the human
brain.
