Psychology is an increasingly prominent field in contemporary society, particularly in specializations such as Clinical Psychology, Counseling Psychology, Health Psychology, and Psychopathology. Consequently, choosing to study Psychology is projected to be a field with high social demand. Students pursuing this major will have diverse employment opportunities across various sectors upon graduation.
✅ Recognizing the necessity of the Psychology field, the National Assembly officially passed the Law on Medical Examination and Treatment No. 15/2023/QH15 on 9 January 2023, in which clinical psychology is officially included as a category requiring clinical practice and a license to practice medical examination and treatment. Furthermore, according to Circular 31/2017/TT-BGDĐT issued by the Ministry of Education and Training on 18 December 2017, which provides guidelines for psychological counseling in general schools, graduates with a Bachelor of Psychology can work in schools as school psychologists, supporting teachers and students in enhancing the quality of comprehensive education.
✅ Currently, the education system includes over 30 universities offering a Bachelor of Psychology. However, the health sector currently lacks institutions providing specialized training in psychology for medical practice. With its long-standing history, Hanoi Medical University is a leading institution in training high-quality human resources for the health sector. The University is currently in the process of launching the Bachelor of Psychology program, with the first cohort expected to be admitted in the 2024-2025 academic year.
