The Psychology Major is an amazing, detailed resource for students considering or in a Psychology Bachelor's or Graduate program. Landrum extensively details the vast breadth of options a psychology student may have after graduation and the importance of the analytical, critical thinking and communication skills that psychology students obtain through their education. This book is a great resource for any students in Psychology or similar disciplines whether they want to go into a clinical, medical, business, public service or educational field! I personally thought this book was excellent in providing me with guidance as to where to look for career opportunities.
