Getting a PhD in psychology is much more difficult than getting a masters degree. The reason for this is that a PhD requires years of intensive research and writing a giant paper. A masters degree is much more structured, and lasts only a year or two.
If I'm not wrong, you will have to take a course in Psychology first, and after your BSc you will have to do a masters in an area related to child psychology. But check out some universities just to give you an idea.
there is no extra dungeons in master quest the dungeons are just harder and kinda mixed up
Pure psychology is studying psychology just for the sake of knowledge. Applied psychology is psychology knowledge used to solve real life problems.
Functionalism emphasized the importance of understanding the purpose and function of mental processes, rather than just their structure. This approach helped shape modern psychology by emphasizing practical applications, such as problem-solving and adaptation in real-world settings. Functionalism also influenced the development of applied psychology fields like industrial-organizational and clinical psychology.
A bachelor's in psychology will be mostly fulfilling if you just enjoy the field of work. If you are looking to move forward with your career or make any money at all you will need to get at least a masters or maybe a dual bachelors in something else related. Unless being a guidance counselor for 28 to 32 K a year is enough.
You can choose just about any masters you want. Some may require that you complete any prerequisites not done so already. For example, my bachelors is in psychology, but my masters is in organizational management. What you should do is determine your overall career goals and objectives. Be specific! Once you have established this, your path will become clear.
Yes, you can make that switch at the masters level. I would not call this a major hurtle, but you may be required to take some prerequisite courses at the undergraduate level if you do not have them already. These could be within the social science area. I am not saying you will have to, but it is a possibility. Still, I would not call this a major hurtle. If this is a career you have your heart set on, then you will do it. Just remember, what ever you intend to do, do it out of passion, out of a love for what you do and the benefit it brings others as well as yourself. Only by this will you realize true success. Keep the vision!
Individuals who pursue a masters degree come from a variety of undergraduate backgrounds. Which masters to take is dependent on what your overall career goals and objectives are. For example, my bachelors is in psychology with a collateral program in gerontology. However, my masters degree is in organizational management. Just make sure your career goal is specific. Once you have a vision of exactly want it is you really want to do, your path to accomplish it will become clear.
Yes, it is possible to get a master's in psychology with a bachelor's degree in sociology. However, depending on the program, you may need to complete prerequisite courses in psychology before applying to the master's program to meet the educational requirements.

Bubba Watson just won the 2012 Masters.
Basic psychology is research just for the sake of knowledge, and applied psychology is research used to solve real life problems.
There is a 4 year degree in psychology that you can get, but this doesn't give you much of a career or job. A master's in child, family counseling or school counseling/psychologist will give a better job outlook rather than just a degree in psychology. Then, there is a PhD in psychology that will allow you to open a private practice, work in a hospital, or mental facility. Psychology is subject matter and not a preparation for work. The main goal of a college education is to give the student a means for a career/profession.
