      Hello. Whether any job opportunities are available in the UK depends entirely on the kind of jobs you are interested in. And it's important to understand that sometimes finding the right job takes time. It's not always easy to find psychology related jobs in the UK (sorry not trying to discourage you). Hope this helps! Also, check out my video on support worker. I hope it's useful to you.

    Can I job after completing master of psychology course in uk

    • @sumbulsyed95
      @sumbulsyed95  Рік тому +3

      Both public health and psychology are interesting courses. Unfortunately, I did not pursue my degree in public health so cannot comment on the job prospects in the UK. But I can definitely speak for psychology. Usually, there are two routes when you pursue postgraduate degree in psychology in the UK- one is more of practice or clinical (like working in the NHS) and the other is research. For research, you need a minimum of PhD which people usually go for after master's. For practice or clinical also, you need a minimum of DClin as that gives you a licence to practice as a clinical psychologist. People interested in working as a practitioner go for support worker jobs (I made a video on this, you can check it out) or assistant psychologist jobs (these can be quite competitive honestly). After getting a couple of years of experience, you can apply for DClin courses in different universities. I hope this helps!!
