What is the best way to become an art therapist with a BA in Studio Art?

I have a BA in Studio Art from CSULA, and I would like to go back to school to become an Art Therapist. With that said, does anyone know if it's better to go to a school that has an Art Therapy graduate program or would it be more advantageous to get into a Masters program for clinical psychology?

What advice do you have for how to prep myself for the graduate admissions process, entering the world/field of specialized psychology, what steps I might not have thought of to prepare myself to go back to school ?

I got my undergraduate degree in 2017 for Drama/Business management and have been working as a performer and in admin roles. I am currently hoping to get my masters in counseling psychology to become a family and sex therapist. I'm open to thoughts on programs and any general advice. Thank you in advance!

Masters Degree From Abroad?

What are your thoughts on getting a masters degree overseas? I'm interested in getting a masters (electrical engineering), but ideally abroad. Next semester, I'm going to study abroad in Japan. How does getting a masters overseas compare to getting one domestically? Why do employers and companies like candidates who have studied abroad? If you have studied abroad, how has that helped you as not only an employee at your respective companies, but as a person in general. If you haven't studied abroad, do you regret it?

When should I start applying for jobs as a final year student? What job boards are useful other than linkedin and indeed? Should i pursue my masters degree or work first?

Hi! I'm a student who's just about to begin my final year in Business and Management in England. From those who graduated, in your experience would it be better to go straight into pursuing a Master's degree or to get work experience for a couple of years before getting into that? :) If it's better to get some work experience, I want to know if now is a reasonable time to begin searching for entry-level jobs? Other than Indeed and Linkedin, what are other websites I can apply to?

What kind of jobs are available for Doctor of pharmacy graduates with a Masters degree in Pharmacology and drug discovery??

Can someone with a career break due to family issues land a job after 5 years of graduation? I finished my Pharm.D in 2019 and worked as a freelancer clinical SAS associate for a year. I quit my job in 2021 due to family issues and served as the full-time primary caregiver for my immediate family until 2022. In 2022, I pursued my masters in pharmacology and drug discovery in the UK and moved to the US after graduation on an H1b visa.

What should I do Is law school really worth it for my future? ?

Hi everyone! I hope all is well with you. My name is Kailynn, and I am currently an undergraduate student interested in attending graduate school. However, I am deeply debating whether I should attend law school (a dual degree program to also complete my master's) or just pursue a master's degree. I am interested in programs such as Public Health, Business/Public Administration, and Environmental Management. My goal is to work in global or corporate sustainability, and eventually, I want to open my own firm. :) I love law and have always been interested in it. However, in terms of practicing and having to take the bar, that's something I don't really want to do. I know the experience can be very favorable, but I also have real test anxiety with taking the LSAT. Any advice and guidance would be greatly appreciated!

What science/biology jobs can I get with a BA in early education? Should I go to grad school?

I graduated with a PreK-4 Education degree last year. I've been substitute teaching, but it hasn't been very fulfilling and my mental health is suffering because of it. I'm wondering if I should go back to school and get a new BA or a masters in something I'm more passionate about. I really like science/biology/sustainability and history so I would love to study that, but still work with kids somehow. I would really appreciate ideas on potential career routes/ masters degrees that I could pursue! I like working with kids, teaching, and grading papers, but the realities of being a teacher (poor working conditions, low pay, stress) is already catching up to me. I like "customer service" type jobs where I can work with people, but I want to engage my brain a little more.

What would you suggest as a good career path to someone who enjoys learning and helping others understand concepts (e.g. disease process)?

Currently an RN (passed boards Nov 2023 and got registered on Jan 2024) working in a non-bedside role (CPO - Clinical Process Outsourcing) with no actual clinical experience. I am considering taking up Masters of Arts in Nursing if I find an affordable opportunity because I feel like I want to study more but I'm not sure if it's for me and I don't really know where that can take me in my career. I am interested in MAN non-thesis because I like being able to learn new things and question as to why things are in a certain way. I get a sense of fulfillment and satisfaction from learning and being able to understand things in depth. I also did consider like research nursing or being and educator, but I feel like I might need bedside experience for those... I don't think I'm strong enough to be at the bedside (life-death is in your hands), I enjoy more of the knowledge side of things. A part of me also really wants to travel so if ever an opportunity arises that I can either afford through a scholarship to study masters abroad, I would love that especially since I grew up outside of the PH in the first place and I long for diversity so much. I was wondering if you had any suggestions on what paths I can take with this in mind.

How do I break into the consulting world?

I am a 23 year old from the United States finishing my Masters degree in International Business Management in France at Grenoble Ecole de Management. Although I am in a Masters program, it is still very difficult to break into the consulting world. I tried searching for mentorship programs at some of the top consulting firms, but from what I have seen, they are only offering these programs to people with diverse backgrounds, which I do not have. Any tips for improving my resume or any free online courses that you may know of would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance!

Looking for science related career path?

I am really unsure what I want to do.. No Med school, no patient care, no teaching. I really enjoy science itself but sitting and doing research my whole life just sounds boring. If anyone can help with a lucrative career path that has to do with science. I really liked immunology, etc in college. Also would like to hear thoughts about Masters Programs if I’m unsure what my career path will be . Thanks!

In Australia, how big is the difference between the *content* of a Bachelor's Degree with Honours and an equivalent Master's Degree?

I understand that Bachelor + Honours degrees typically take 4 years, while Master’s degrees take about 2. But is there a difference in the *content* of these degrees? I'm specifically interested in La Trobe University, but advice about other universities are welcome as well! For reference, these undergraduate vs these postgraduate degrees from La Trobe (which are all health degrees, as upon exiting any of these, you can register with the relevant board and be a practitioner): - Bachelor of Occupational Therapy (Honours) VS Master of Occupational Therapy Practice - Bachelor of Physiotherapy (Honours) VS Master of Physiotherapy Practice - Bachelor of Social Work (Honours) VS Master of Social Work - Bachelor of Speech Pathology (Honours) VS Master of Speech Pathology There may be better examples from other Australian Universities!
