Episode Synopsis

In this special guest episode I speak with Tanya and Tony Machin, two institutional psychology educators from Queensland - University of Southern Queensland,  about the way they entered the psychology education profession in the higher education domain. As co-authors of a recent article published in the Australian Psychological Society (APS) regarding the cessation of the 4+2 pathway, divergent career paths, and mixing cocktails, Tanya and Tony share some incredible insights from the years of work they have conducted into 'psychology and careers' for students within programs around the country. If you do not enter the psychology profession, learn what you might do with your degree in this amazing episode.  The resource that is referred to in this podcast is available here for free.  Further details are below: The Australian Handbook for Careers in Psychological ScienceAuthors:Tony Machin; Tanya Machin; Carla Jeffries; and Nancey HoareBook DescriptionDespite psychology being one of the most popular undergraduate programs, students often report not knowing how training in psychology relates to careers.
