Why study Psychology?

If you’re interested in a career in psychiatric care, as a councilor, psychiatrist or any of the therapeutic fields, then a degree in Psychology is the perfect place to start. The modern world is full of all sorts of stress and anxiety, and more and more people are looking for support from psychologists to objectively and securely talk through their problems.

There’s a lot more to a Psychology degree, though. Insights into human behaviour have become hugely valuable to a wide range of commercial interests. From retailers wanting to understand how and why their customers shop, to marketing firms wanting to more precisely and effectively target their audiences, options are only growing for professionals trained in Psychology.
