Related Online Degrees & Career Pathways

Pursuing a degree in psychology opens doors to a wide array of online programs and related career paths, including social work, counseling, and behavioral health. Many students choose to specialize or move into adjacent fields, often requiring licensure or additional education based on state regulations.

For example, if you are interested in becoming a social worker, it’s important to research state-specific requirements. Those planning to practice in New Jersey can review New Jersey social work license requirements. Students looking at opportunities in the Southwest should examine New Mexico social work education requirements.

The process can differ in other locations. If you’d like to work in the Northeast, familiarize yourself with the steps for becoming a social worker in New York. Similarly, the Southeast has its own standards—review North Carolina social work education requirements before applying to programs or jobs there.

Understanding these pathways ensures you choose the right online degree and stay on track for your desired career in psychology or social work.
