The career: Adult Psychiatrist
You should describe what the career is, including what the typical tasks are for that career, what types of locations hire for that career, and what specific educational needs are required (e.g. business courses vs. biology courses). Describe what a typical day might look like for someone in that career. Also write about what the average salary looks like for that career, and what the prospects look like for that career path over the next few years. Make sure to include a discussion of the pros and cons of going into that particular career path.
All writing should be in your own words; no quotes. There is a significant 5-pt. deduction for each direct quote.
You must use the American Psychological Association website, the Dunn textbook, and the US Bureau of Labor website
You may find and use some peer-reviewed articles detailing the state of the career path by doing a literature search through PsycINFO (like the Literature Search Assignment). When you find other sources, make sure that you ONLY USE peer reviewed articles; NO blogs or internet postings, such as Simply Psychology, Careers in Psychology, or Masters in Psychology Guide. There is a 5-pt. deduction for each missing requirement and for using references that are not peer reviewed so if you are not sure ask me.
