Salidas profesionales |
Students who have already obtained their doctorate multiply the options for professional opportunities in the fields of Social and Environmental Psychology and Human Resources and Organisations.
One of the most natural opportunities is that of university lecturer and/or researcher in different research centres and institutes in the broad spectrum of Social Sciences related to human behaviour.
The essential search for and updating of knowledge makes PhD graduates highly desirable candidates for many institutions, social entities and companies seeking to improve human, social and environmental behaviour.
On the other hand, the world of consultancy and advice to public and private institutions, large and small, are also common professional opportunities. |
