Your career in psychology: putting your graduate degree to work

Each year several thousand students receive a doctoral degree in psychology. Most graduates are likely confronted by such questions as “must I complete apostdoctoral 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 the proper preparation to deal effectively with theseand other issues, the resulting frustration and anxiety are not surprising. Your Career in Psychology helps answer these and other critical questions posedby most graduates in psychology. A carefully selected cadre of authors--all authorities in their respective areas--directly address 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 makesthis volume 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 non-applied areas.
