There's too many to list.\nHere is the American Psychological Association's Division list.  That should give you a good idea of the different fields.

I think it depends on what field of psychology you envision yourself wanting to do. \n\nIn general, a biology class can help when you get into structure of the brain, nervous system, etc. If you plan on going into neuropsych, look at courses like biology, chemistry, anatomy/physiology for the future.\n\nThe way my undergrad psych program was set up, the only required courses were Intro, Intro to Statistics, and Experimental Psych. Everything else was up to you, because of all of the different subject areas... sports psych, developmental, I/O, sexuality, adolescent, cognitive, sensation/ perception, personality... and the list goes on.\n\nMost graduate degrees in psychology have a strong research component (esp. if you are required to do a thesis/ dissertation) so if you are thinking that route, get comfy with research methodology and statistics. Test and Measurements is also a good course to catch in undergrad if you can.\n\nYou should have a degree advisor within your major dept. that you can talk to for planning your course of study in regards to what you want to do later on. \n\nA sidenote if you are thinking about counseling/ psychotherapy... you might want to look at a Counseling degree/ LPC program and see if that might be what you are looking for as well.

My friend got her bachelors in psychology & she's a cashier @ Wal-Mart.  I got my bachelors in psychology & I'm trying to get into the HR department of the communications company I currently work for.\n\nSeriously though, there are several options for a career in psychology.  Check out www.apa.org.  That's the American Psychological Association.  They'll have some good insight for ya.

I got my degree in Social Work... many more job options than psychology, but Spanish is definitely a good idea!  I was turned down for some jobs because I don't speak Spanish.  Good luck!

Neuropsych is good, but it almost sounds like you are interested in neuroscience (hint when you look at this: many universities have seperate neuroscience and psychology departments)

Whatever I loved best, Psychology is my personal favorite of these choices. it may be more work to become a psychologist than a social worker but usually the work is a bit better paying. There are a lot of job openings for Social Workers but they also tend to be lower paying and low prestige. Choose what you LOVE to do

Medical studies discovered pretty much all vaccines.  Psychological studies help treat people with disorders. Medicine in general is a big one. \nChemists have figured out how to wipe out grease from our dishes and how to use it in our automobiles.  Facial products from cleansers to moisturizers.  Even some things we eat have been developed by chemists.\nIt really depends on what brach of science you are looking at, but every branch has something to offer to society.

It really depends on what you want to do. In general, accountants deal more with data than people (although not necessarily so) and psychologists deal more with people than data (although not necessarily so). Now, there are jobs in both fields that allow you to deal more with people or data (for example, there are some psychologists who are psychometricians or interested in measurement and statistics and there are accountants who are mainly consultants and work more with clients).\n\nThere is a difference in length of education. Accountants can work with a bachelor's degree, but to be a psychologist you must have at least a masters degree, and in most states you must have a doctoral degree to work independently. Psychology is based both academic and practical experience.\n\nSince there are some differences in these two choices, have you thought about finding out more about your career interests and values? If you are a student you can go to your guidance counselor or college counseling center; adults and others can go to most community college career centers for some career counseling to help you decide.\n\nIf you haven't already, talk with a psychologist and an accountant to see what their work life is like. \n\nGood luck with your decision!

Are you asking about fields of study, also known as academic programs or majors? If so, then the correct terms are "public relations" and "human relations." So to answer this question, the study of human relations is the same as psychology.

INTRODUCTION\nFor starters, psychology must be distinguished from behavioural science and psychiatry from neuromedicine. Psychology and psychiatry are subtly different to each other but it's important to realise that neither are scientific disciplines- they are pseudosciences.\n\nWHAT PSYCHOLOGY IS NOT\nPsychology is not behavioural science. Behavioural science is about observing the behaviour of living creatures and drawing conclusions about that behaviour and its causes and its consequences. The context of the behavioural science could be anything from criminology to neuromedicine.\n\nWHAT PSYCHIATRY IS NOT\nPsychiatry is not neuromedicine. Neuromedicine is about healing a physical, observable anomoly in tissue that is causing a problem with the nervous system resulting in observable, behavioural symptoms such as tardive dyskinsea, motor disfunction, etc. or at the very least treating the conditions and problems that arise from the neurological problem if it cannot be mended. Neuromedicine is genuine medicine and it is entirely scientific. Genuine neurophysicians are not psychiatrists.\n\nWHAT PSYCHOLOGY IS\nPsychology comes from the Greek word "psuche" which refers to the soul, spirit or mind of a person. Behavioural studies are science but making suggestive comments about the mind, soul and spirit is the realm of religion. Psychology is not science; it is pseudoscience. Psychology, by making statements about the mind, soul and spirit- in unbiblical terms- is simply another false religion. The ideas in psychology (i.e. the religious ideology) is all about "self-" me me me. It is ideological in the very same way that communism, naziism and all other fascist movements are ideological. The ideology is pushed down people's throats but made to look "gentle." So "psychotherapy" is made to look helpful and dressed up as medicine. But it has NO FACTUAL BASIS. It is a false religion. Because it has no factual basis, coersion is utilised to ensure people follow it. This is where psychiatry comes in.\n\nWHAT PSYCHIATRY IS\nPsychiatry is a coersive, controlling regime. It is witchdoctoring under the guise of medicine. The religious ideology of psychology is pedalled but it is rammed down people's throats with threats of terrible torture, mutilation, poisoning, incarceration, segregation and deprivation of livelihood. Psychiatrists lie to people. They make out that man ought to be a self-serving entity and that he has no need for God. Hypnosis using mind-altering drugs is practiced to weaken people's resolve. The Greek word for this hypnosis is "pharmakeia" which is translated in The Bible as witchcraft (Gal 5:20). The drugs in psychiatry are usually seen as different to the drugs on the street but in fact they do the very same thing as the street drugs people use "illegally" to get high. In fact sometimes the drugs in psychiatry are the very same drugs as the ones on the street. The coersion and control doesn't just stop with poisoning people with drugs. Incarceration without trial is routinely used and, in the context of psychological indoctrination, this is just inquisition. Other tactics are used which are equally violent. The victim of psychiatry is usually branded for life in a way that makes him out to be subhuman, a "diseased" subcitizen, a criminal with a record but no evidence of a crime, a punishable target for bullies on fat salaries with no moral backbone but great tendency to judge others.\n\nCONCLUSION\nSo here's your answer: psychology and psychiatry are witchcraft and witchdoctoring. They come under the collective term "witchery" which is just plain and simply false religion. It is a violent, coersive regime and a load of rubbish.

Science is broadly sub-divided into the categories of natural sciences and the social sciences. There are also related disciplines that are grouped into interdisciplinary and applied sciences, such as engineering and health science. Within these categories are specialized scientific fields that can include elements of other scientific disciplines but often possess their own terminology and body of expertise. Examples of diverse scientific specialities include archaeology, forensic psychology, materials science, microbiology, nuclear physics and paleontology.
