The guardian article

Original article from: http://www.guardian.co.uk/education/2008/may/01/universityguide.psychology
This article talks about psychology as a career for future students. This expose try to answer four questions. What will I learn?, ¿What skills will it give me? , ¿What job can I get? and finally ¿What will look good on the CV?. This question became a university guide for future students. The first question gives you a general perspective about what it is psychology and what do you need to do learn to become a psychologist. You must initiate with a general grounding in biological, to finally end with a cognitive psychology. The second question talks about what skills will you develop in a career like this. Some of those are research skills, of course, when students graduate they will have plenty of background knowledge, and will be able to demonstrate critical and independent thinking. The third question talks about jobs that a psychologist can get, those jobs could involve work in educational area, or do some work as clinical psychologist, or an occupational one. Finally, the fourth question ¿what will look good on the CV?. And the answer of the text is this, the ability to apply multiple perspectives to psychological issues and the effective team working skills.
