Employment orientation of the Master of Psychology Program of the University of Hong Kong;
With the improvement of social and economic life and the rapid development of science and technology, medicine has changed from the traditional biomedical model to the biopsychosocial medical model. Medical psychology and psychological counseling have become an important part of modern medicine, and they have been paid more and more attention and demand by society. In order to provide on-the-job personnel with opportunities to study postgraduate courses.
Psychology in Hong Kong can be roughly divided into three categories:
Psychology: Generally, it is a one-year program, and most of them do not require the professional background of the applicants, so it is specially provided for students without psychological background, with the largest number of applicants and the fiercest competition.
Clinical Psychology: A two-year program requires applicants to have a professional background in psychology, with priority given to those who have work experience and can speak Cantonese. It is the most difficult master of psychology program in Hong Kong. However, after finishing this master's degree, I have the opportunity to stay in Hong Kong as a "psychological counselor", with low work pressure and high salary.
Educational Psychology: It is also a two-year program. Candidates are required to have a psychological background of+1, and it is recommended to have more than one year of work experience. However, it should be noted that this major generally only enrolls students once every two years. I will elaborate on whether to open the application this year, which can be considered, but the difficulty is not low.
