Yes Aditi there is lots of scope in phychology Psychologists are found everywhere these days ranging from schools to the hospitals etc.

They are paid very high as per their experience and qualification. If you could do a PHd in psychology then you can earn lakhs a year. So do worry about the scope. If you are really interested to serve the community then you must join.

best of luck

Dear friend,
Psychology is one of the most interesting career study courses.

There are opportunities to join in the academics sector or even in the professional psychologist sector.
The demand in this field is very bright you can even go for higher studies like Master's in psychology and then Phd.
So just go further in it.

Best wishes...

Hello friend,
Just a bachelor degree in psychology is not enough to fetch you a satisfied career.If you want to make a successfull career in psychology, you will need to cover up the entire degree i.e. BA in Psychology, then MA and then Phd.
BA(Honors)-3 years
MA - 2 years
Phd - 2 years

The career in this field depends upon the qualification and the area of expertise. You may specialize in any of the following area, depending upon your interset and its career prospect.
Clinical Psychologists
Counseling Psychologists
Social Psychologists
Educational Psychologists
Industrial Psychologists
Research psychologists
Developmental psychologists

If you want to pursue career in Psychology just with Bachelors degree you have less job options as compare to the job options available to those candidates who are going to pursue career in Psychology with Mater's degree and doctorate in psychology.

These career options initially have little to do with the field of Psychology.

However an undergraduate education in psychology will help the students to develop the skills that are important to variety of careers.

Many persons with bachelors degree in Psychology will work in division of human or social services.

Some job titles here are as follows
-Case Management
-Career Counselor
-Re habitation Specialist
-Psychiatric Technician

By working in these area the students may develop some skills like
-ability to assess client needs
-keep thorough and accurate records
-express care and empathy
-and acts as an advocate for your client

As an undergraduate you have done some amount of considerable research. This skill would be useful in many jobs such as
-Library assistant
-Probation officer
-Business manager
-Case worker and many others

So for total 3 years of graduation one studies a mixed bag of subjects like - Sociology, Psychology, History, Geography, Political Sc etc. The entry criteria to a BA pass course is not very difficult.

BA Hons, is an honorary degree, which one gets admission to only after meeting strict eligibility parameters. Also it is a specialized degree, i.e during 3 years of graduation, one only studies papers of the chosen honors field. Eg I am a Psychology Hons grad from Delhi University and all the papers I studied for my grad were Psychology papers (statistics in psychology, clinical psychology, research methods etc)

Needless to say it is much tougher to be considered for an honors course!
