Legitimate questions.\u00a0 Most people don’t know the value <\/b>of a psychology major.\u00a0 They don’t recognize that our field trains us to understand and connect with other people<\/b>–and that people are everywhere<\/b>, in every profession.\u00a0 They haven’t considered all of the unique skills <\/b>that are developed through psychology classes.\u00a0 They don’t know what makes psychology special<\/b>.<\/p>

And, very likely, neither do you<\/b>.<\/p>

On this page, I have curated a handful of resources for psychology majors who want to know more about skills and careers in the field.\u00a0 I hope you find these resources useful and welcome any questions you have about them!
