Majoring in Psych?

Every social science undergraduate can benefit from the practical career-planning advice in the latest edition of Majoring in Psych? Focusing on the multiple ways psychology majors in particular can enhance their marketability while still in school, this short guide answers the questions about career options they find themselves asking. As one reviewer put it, “The important thing is to make your degree work for you by putting in the extra effort. The basic requirements for graduation are not good enough. You need to set yourself apart from the other graduates competing against you for jobs. This book tells you how to do that.”The way the authors present topics, framed as questions, and their engaging discussions of tasks and sound advice stimulate readers to think about meaningful career (and graduate school) issues, even before they encounter them. Although readers will absorb different levels and amounts of information, all will profit.
