Year 12s: what will be the first way you research your future options? >>

Psychology and criminology vs forensic psychology

Hello I am torn between these 2 degrees and would like to hear from students that are/have taken them!

My main questions are is the workload hard to manage with a joint degree?

Is it more interesting to study two subjects or just more stressful?

Which has better student satisfaction?

How different is criminology to forensic psychology?

Amy input is greatly appreciated but please keep it friendly there's enough hate in this world! x

Forensic Psychology allows you eventually become a chartered psychologist in that area, should you do Stages 1 and 2 after graduating

Look at the kinds of jobs you can get with each respective degree, the work you'd be doing, the environment you'd be working, the pay etc
