What is psychology?

"Psychology is the study of the mind and behavior. The discipline embraces all aspects of the human experience—from the functions of the brain to the actions of nations, from child development to care for the aged."
            --as defined by the American Psychological Association 

What do psychologists do?

A degree in psychology can be useful in any field, as it will help you to better understand the behavior of yourself, your coworkers, and your clients or customers. Psychologists work in a wide variety of fields in both the profit and non-profit sectors. Learn more about psychology careers at the American Psychological Association and at Psych Web.
