Careers in Psychology

In the Winter 2008 (Volume:12, Issue: 2) edition of "Eye on Psi-Chi", the quarterly newsletter of the National Honor Society in Psychology, Debra Park of West Deptford High School (NJ) and Amy Fineburg of Spain Park High School (AL) wrote an article, Teaching High School Psychology as a Career Pathway.

Debra and Amy provide excellent advise for anyone interested in pursuing a career teaching high school psychology. The full article can be found at http://www.psichi.org/pubs/articles/article_664.asp


For additional information on careers in psychology, please refer to the APA's booklet, Psychology: Careers for the Twenty-First Century. This web-based resource provides detailed information on a number of career options for someone majoring in psychology.

While written more to a college student, this is an ideal reference for any high school student interested in going into psychology.

The booklet can be found on the APA's website at http://www.apa.org/topics/psychologycareer.html
