I am graduate with Economics honours in Psychology was my subsidiary subject. Can I do PG Diploma in Clinical Psychology? My age is 47 years but I want to start my career in this field. What is the possibility for me to build career?

Hello,
Greetings from Career Saints!
Yes. To do PG diploma in Clinical Pyschology one should have passed a bachelors degree with a minimum of 50% marks. Though you are from Economics background, if you can carry out academic and clinical assessments in family therapy settings, adult health psychology, and psychological assessment of neuro psychological and psychological disorders in adults and children then you are pretty much suitable to take up this course.
There is no upper age limit to practice pyschology. This course will shape you up in building your career when you become either licensed mental health professional qualified to purse in medical, mental health, social service, geriatric and research fields.
Hope this helps you to take your decision.
Good luck.

## If you had done B.A in Psychology or Clinical Psychology in graduation level then you go ahead or PG in Clinical Psychology with a minimum of 55% marks.

###You need to try for NET TISS OR DUET Compitative exam for MA in clinical psychology
