Psychology Careers & Graduate Study
By completing our program, undergraduate students prepare themselves for a variety of employment and educational opportunities. About one-third of our students attend graduate school immediately after completing our program. Another one-third enter graduate school after working for one to five years in a field related to psychology. Most of these students enter graduate programs in psychology, social work, and counseling. Some attend medical and law school. The remaining students begin careers in a wide range of fields, most of which are health care or service related (pharmaceutical companies, non-profit organizations, health care services, management, computer services, human resources, sales, education, or advertising).
