Can I combine a psychology degree with a curriculum for being an attorney?

Question

And what kind of degree/job would that fall under?

Answer 1

Yes, many universities now have a program that combines getting a JD and a psychology degree. However, this is usually a graduate school program that requires an undergraduate degree before approval.

The psychology degree would be in forensic psychology, which is basically psychology and the law. Thus the degree would be a JD and a forensic psychology degree.

Answer 2

Well your major will probably be along the lines....Major:Psychology, Minor/Concentration: Pre-Law. With a professional concentration like Pre_Pharmacy, Pre-Law, Pre-Med, etc., it's good to major in things that will make u more well rounded (Psychology, Political Science, Sociology, etc), but make sure you get those pre-requisites in as much as you can. That's really what matters, and your gpa.

Answer 3

You would do much better if you stopped trying to connect college majors with a future career. If you want to do that, then you need to go to a technical institute like ITT, or Devry, Chubbs, because those are the kinds of schools that provide you with job training skills--not a 4-year college major.
