Yes it is a possibility. You will have to inquire about any prerequisite coursework required for entrance to the program.
Phd, ma, msc, ba, bsc,
A pediatrician is an MD (or DO), but some pediatricians do go on to get their PhD degrees, usually because they are interested in doctoral research in a very specific area of pediatrics. A PhD by itself, however, will not suffice - for clinical pediatric work. ;)
Most have a doctorate (PhD) in psychology with additional years of post-doctoral training in clinical neuropsychology.
It might be Master of Science in Communications Practices. That's the closest I could find in my limited research. It also stands for Master of Science in Clinical Psychology.
Typically, the minimum educational requirement is a master's degree. However, meaning research requires a doctorate within the field you are involved in. Outside of the medical field, the degree required is usually a PhD.

A person is able to transfer to another college to obtain a phd if they have attended TIFR. Many colleges will accept the courses taken here as transfer credits for their phd program.
No. These are two distinct levels of qualification.
A PsyD (Doctor of Psychology) degree typically focuses on clinical practice and therapy, emphasizing hands-on training and skills development. In contrast, a Ph.D in psychology places a greater emphasis on research and academic scholarship, with training in experimental design and data analysis. Ultimately, individuals with a PsyD are often more prepared for clinical practice, while those with a Ph.D may pursue careers in research, academia, or clinical practice as well.
No, you must have a PhD in clinical psychology, and have an approved internshp in clinical psychology to get a license as a clinical psychologist, but it differs state by state.
no
Each state has specific requirements for the licensing of psychologists. Generally, you would be expected to have completed a PhD in order to work in a clinical setting. First you would earn a BA, then an MA and then do research and write your dissertation to earn the PhD.
