Brainstorming

Topic - Psychology (my major (profession))

What are some of psychologies applications in the real world?
What does it mean to be a psychologist in this day and age?
Why is psychology so important to us today?

I asked these preliminary questions while brainstorming, as I thought they were more than worth mentioning. For the first question, applications of psychology are crucial for me to know as I'm going to be going into the working world soon and I will need to know what the most relevant applications are in the field of psychology, in order to be a more effective worker. As for the second question, I thought that it would be important to find out how the field of psychology has changed and been updated over the years. Being a rather new field of study in comparison with other fields, there is much that can be discovered by us, the new upcoming workers of tomorrow. My last question has to do with the second, in that it deals with psychology's relevance to us. As we learn more about the human mind, we can discover new innovative methods at treating otherwise incurable illnesses.
