What Degree should I be looking at to be a clinical psychologist?

I’m trying to figure degree pathways to be a clinical therapist and eventually a clinical psychologist. From what I’m aware of my degree should be in science i.e. BS, MS, I don’t think I can find anything AS-T with Psychology unless I just don’t know where to look. I’ve found 2 degree programs for the B.S. Cognitive Science and Psychobiology , which degree would be better for the career path?

How does a psychologist compare and contrast to a psychiatrist?

I do know the education requirements and salaries are different, but what about the actual tasks? Can they both diagnose mental disorders or is that only the job of one? Can psychiatrists offer talk therapy in addition to medication, or do they just prescribe the meds? Which would be more direct in helping people through their mental illnesses?
