Im narrowing it down to the Forensic field, but there are some differences in Psychology and Psychiatry. If you are either a FORENSIC Psychologist or FORENSIC Psychiatrist, your experiences and job description would be greatly…. Click Here to Read More

Product Description“When I sat down to read this book, I decided to fasten my seat-belt. There are people so desperate that they are willing to commit terrible crimes to get their message across, and there are carers so assaulted that they must put safety before care.

I’m not starting college for a while (about 5 years), but I want to know: is all the education and studying for a career in forensic psych worth it? I know the pay is pretty average ($40,000/year) and it takes at least 4 years. I want to know now, so I know which subjects to really focus on and which I should take in high school. Also, any good, affordable colleges around PA with majors in chemistry and/or psychology (clinical or…. Click Here to Read More

I’m stuck trying to decide between the two. Also, the psychology/criminal justice degree is through a purely online university (Walden University), while the forensic psychology degree is through an online program at a brick and mortar university. Not sure if that makes any difference. I just don’t want to study something for so long and then not be able to find any jobs when I graduate. Please…. Click Here to Read More
I have always wanted to do criminal profiling because I really enjoy psychology but also criminal justice but the problem is the only way I know how to do this is with a degree in forensic psychology and that I know of there are not any colleges semi-close to me(NC) that offer this form of psychology. I was wondering if there was any other way to do this like majoring in a specific form of psychology and minoring in criminal justice or something of the…. Click Here to Read More
