Career

Depending on your specialisation, you will opt for a specific career path. However, be warned that money is not something that you will receive in spite of the years of study you have already put in. You need to be realistic, realize that your qualifications will not put you at par with others who have done professional courses. Kumaria advises that when after years of work you are earning only Rs. 25,000 a month, you'll start questioning your decision to have studied psychology but you need to stay with it. She advises that getting some experience from abroad in terms of pursuing short-term courses or getting a global experience by joining the likes of Doctors without frontiers will increase your exposure and help build confidence. Choices also become based on your personal needs at the time you finish your degree. Paresh Shah had passed out with a specialisation in organizational behaviour but opted to join an NGO where he began work as a counsellor. Psychology as a field remains as an all women subject in the mind of society, a thought that makes men feel a bit marginalized when they opt for this subject. However, this didn't deter Shah from staying in the subject and he went on to receive the Richmond Fellowship and worked in the field of psychosocial rehabilitation. It was demanding work, especially at the emotional level. After six years of work experience, he found himself earning only Rs. 15,000-20,000 a month, leaving him feeling a little disillusioned. He opted to enter the corporate world and use the skills he learned while studying organizational behaviour. Shah has a piece of advice for people entering the field of psychology echoed in Masihs words, They should have the passion and they should also have the patience. You need to think about your orientation and mentors seriously, there are very good courses available abroad. Just remember psychology is not a cake walk.
