I am doing 12th from Science stream And i am interested in studying Psychology subject in my graduation as i want to make a career in this field only. So tell me which course has more job scope - Clinical Psychology or Industrial Psychology?

Thank you!

Either of the two fields has equal career opportunities, now it depends upon your interest as to which field do you choose to pursue your career in.

Clinical Psychology:

> Candidates can find jobs in licensed psychiatric nursing homes.

> They can also offer counsellng services to people in need of ppsychcologicl help.

> Candidates can also find job as a full time career counselor in various schools, etc.

Industrial psychology;

> Candidates can work in Human Resource or management counselling.

> Some can even go for research and teaching profession.

> Candidates can even apply for jobs abroad as there is a huge requirement of such psychologist in foreign countries.

Clinical psychology has more scope as every reputed hospital has a counselor who have done their clinical psychology where you have to deal with patients sufferefrom depression alhocol habit schizophrenia etc .. Mental health and they are highly paid rg CMC hospital in vellore

Both of the courses have a good job scope after class 12th completion. As you are studying class 12th, after completing you may take any of the courses in which you have interest. But my opinion for you is to opt for Clinical Psychology as nowadays this has become more popular to deal with. In this field you have to deal with the patients who are suffering from any kind of depression, alcohol habits, etc.
