    hey @Shasha_0517 welcome!
    That sounds like a very interesting undergraduate course! good luck with your masters next year! I am currently deciding between psychology related courses for my own!
  • lunarcat522lunarcat522 Inactive Posts: 609 Incredible Poster
    @Katie12 What courses are you considering? I'm really interested as I'm planning on hopefully going undergraduate MA psychology year 2, but after undergraduate I'm not really sure - maybe some sort of postgraduate and then research? Or a job as a support person in a college? I'm not too sure yet!
  • Katie12Katie12 Posts: 430 Listening Ear
    @lunarcat522 I'm a bit unsure atm. Cant decide between mental health related courses or something more to do with forensic psychology! both are very interesting but so different :lol:
    A support role in college sounds like it would be an interesting job too!
