Psychology & Counselling courses

can i ask something? is it true that in SG, you cannot practise as a psychologist unless you get a degree in both psychology and medicine? cos that's what i heard from people, but dunno if it's true. then if you obtain a degree in psychology but no med, then only can practise overseas like in states or aust?

what jobs can a degree in psychology lead you to?

[Annieluv]

No, you don't have to study medicine. Just study 6 years (Bachelor and Masters) minimum in the area that you want to practise in.

you only need a med degree to be a psychiatrist.

actually am thinking of taking this course for a while...

but, any idea where can I get a diploma instead of a degree? Am not really sure if this is my interest now...

there are not much opportunities for a dip psych holder... think carefully before you invest your money.

NUS extension offers a professional diploma:

From what I know is CQU is now currently with Melior Business School, the degree programme is a Bachelor of Science (Psychology) and its a 12 modules course to be completed in 2 years. The fees are 16200 Australian dollars.

bumping it up!

anyone took part-time psychology course for interest sake? its really expensive coz i cannot see how it can help in my career, even if i do a career switch. coz psychology is useful when u really pursue it to at least a masters! im in engineering field btw.. and the money could be put to better use in future..

nope, a Master's degree in psychology can already. you dont need to have a double degree in psychology and medicine.
