The fundamental concepts of psychology are creeping into every facet of our lives. The study of mind and behavior to learn why people feel, think and act the way they do is a vital step toward creating progressive solutions to our most difficult problems.

Below, Governor Kaine demonstrates the use of fundamental marketing psychology to begin gaining back Virginians trust in government. The topic is regarding a website built in an effort to coordinate the ideas of Virginia citizens regarding how stimulus money should be spent.

“Every locality and citizen has a stake in our economic recovery and should have a voice in deciding how this money is spent.” - Viginia Governor Tim Kaine, Feb. 10th, 2009¹

As a consequence of new efforts in creating logical solutions, government demand on Virginia psychology schools for well trained graduates has been steadily increasing.

In addition, Virginia psychology college graduates are finding increasing opportunity in businesses and in the mental health industry. In business settings, psychology professionals are being called upon more often to help create more efficient and productive workplaces as well as to help create more refined business strategies as an effort to better understand the needs of clients and customers.

Mental health professionals graduating from Virginia psychology colleges are also experiencing increasing demand. Much of the rise in demand for mental health professionals in Virginia is due to a steadily increasing level of awareness of mental illness and substance abuse issues. As awareness of mental health issues and access to treatment heightens, the number of individuals who actively seek help follows suit.

As a result, career opportunities in all psychology professions should increase steadily over the coming years.
