Hi everyone,
I have two paths before me and I'm having a hard time choosing. I graduated from undergrad (BSc in psychology) a few years ago with a GPA in the mid-3s. I have not had any research experience, so I'm looking to take the next two to three years to get a masters degree and gain that research experience at the same time.
I have the opportunity to work on an LPC while doing both clinical and research work at a local prestigious university's addiction unit under a clinical psychologist. I also have the opportunity to join the university's masters in neuroscience program and work on an independent research project with a mentor neuroscientist in addiction sciences.
My end goal is to go to a university-based, funded PhD program in clinical psychology. Once licensed, I'd ideally like to devote half my time to clinical work and the other half to addiction science research. Which masters program would you pick in my situation?
