Hey
I am currently studying psychology and am about to complete my bachelor. I am interested in persuing a career in criminal psychology. However, upon my reading I have confused myself and need some clarification.

Is there a difference between criminal and forensic psychology? If so what is the difference? And is the path to get to each the same or similar??

Thank you,

Laura.
