The practice of  

Parapsychic Science

  unites metaphysical concepts with contemporary science to study psychic phenomena. Students who enroll in a parapsychic science program learn about investigating paranormal occurrences by developing their intuitive awareness.

What You'll Learn
Topics of study may include telekinesis, extra sensory perception, and hypnosis, as well as spiritual healing, the study of death, clairvoyance, and more. Often parapsychic science can be part of a larger curriculum involving divinity, holistic healing and spirituality, however, there are some who focus their studies with the goal of becoming a parapsychologist.

Degree Types
Degrees in parapsychic science can range from certificates to graduate studies.

Career Paths

Parapsychology is a relatively small field, in that there are few dedicated practicing parapsycholigists that only do that type of work. However, there are several related career fields in which studying parapsychic science adds another layer of expertise.

Job Outlook
As the popularity of holistic healing and alternative studies increases, an interest in parapsychic studies may follow suit.

Licensing and Accreditation Information
There is currently no national accrediting body for parapsychic science study, however, students can learn more about the profession via the Parapsychological Association, which dubs itself "the international professional organization of scientists and scholars engaged in the study of 'psi'' (or 'psychic') experiences, such as telepathy, clairvoyance, psychokinesis, psychic healing, and precognition ("parapsychology")."
