Your Career in Psychology: Putting Your Graduate Degree to Work Tapa blanda - 2009 - 1st Edición

Descripción de contraportada

Each year several thousand students receive a doctoral degree in psychology. Most graduates are likely to be confronted by such questions as "Must I complete a postdoctoral placement?", "Should I establish a private practice?", "Will I be able to pursue both my teaching and research interests?", "What steps must I take to get licensed?", and "At what type of institution do I want to work?" Without proper preparation to deal with these and other issues, the resulting frustration and anxiety are not surprising.

Your Career in Psychology helps answer these and other critical questions posed by most graduates in psychology. A carefully selected cadre of authors -- all authorities in their respective areas -- directly addresses the major issues confronting recent doctoral graduates. Yet, having a doctoral degree in hand is not necessary in order to benefit from this book. The breadth of the content is relevant to a diverse array of students, aspiring professionals, and their advisors, at all educational levels and in both applied (e.g., clinical, counseling, and forensic) and nonapplied areas.
