The career i want take up is PSYCHOLOGY. I have a strong passion for psychology and i have pretty much confirmed that i want to work in the psychology field. I have been inspired by a psychologist that i know and i want to major in helping patients with eating disorders and as well as major in providing therapy for inmates in prisons. I am also considering to take up being a public speaker to reach out to people with eating disorders and prisoners.
The minimum requirement for being a psychologist is a honours psychology degree. But to be a professional one, a Master's or Doctorate Degree is required. I mainly want to be in clinical and counselling psychology. The main subjects required are social science subjects. I am planning to go to NUS to get my master's or doctorate degree for psychology. Being a psychologist requires sensitive and questioning skills, ability to relate to and empathise with a range of people, excellent communication skills etc. I am not too sure about the salary of psychologists, but money doesn't matter. (wow so deep) But i do know that being in a clinical and counselling psychologist will allow me to reach out the prisoners and patients of eating disorders.
