Psychology undergrad to medical post grad?

Antonia1993

hey guys I'm looking for a bit of info I've tried looking online but different sites say different things. anyway basically i want to transition from psychology to pathology, specifically forensic pathology and I'm just wondering if its possible to do this bearing in mind its Bsc psychology with heavy emphasis on cognition and biology? i know you have to become a regular doctor first but can i do this by doing a medical masters and PHD?

You can't do it with a masters and PhD, but you can do it by going through medical school and then specialising. This can be done through various 4yr accelerated courses. However, keep in mind that there are relatively few jobs in forensic pathology in the UK.
