Our highly respected MSc Organizational Psychology, accredited by the British Psychological Society, will develop your understanding of people and organizations within the context of both occupational psychology and organizational behavior.
As the world of work continues to change, we equip students to ask, and answer, fundamental questions such as:
What does good leadership mean?
How do we support well-being at work?
Why do we do what we do at work?
You will begin by examining ideas about careers as the axis of the individual-organization relationship, important at social and economic levels, and relevant to you at any stage of your life. Simultaneously, you will be learning about a range of organizational research methods in preparation for carrying out your own research project. You will go on to cover learning, motivation, organizational change, leadership, selection, and assessment and well-being.
Our MSc Organizational Psychology is industry-relevant, so graduates can pursue career paths in psychology, human resources, and management. Possible professions include:
occupational psychologist
human resources officer
