Designed and delivered by leading academics and experts in their field, the MSc Organisational Psychology pathway within the MSc Occupational and Organisational Psychology programme, was introduced for students without a BPS accredited Psychology bachelor’s degree.
The pathway focuses on developing a new generation of practitioners in occupational psychology who can make a positive difference on the effectiveness and well-being of people and organisations.
Teaching draws upon the latest evidence and cutting-edge research to cover all major aspects of organisational psychology, enabling students to develop a critical understanding of how research into human behaviour at work can be applied to enhance the effectiveness of people and organisations at work.
Core areas include: leadership, motivation and engagement; well-being at work; work design, organisational change and development; psychological assessment at work; and learning, training and development. Students also undertake a supervised empirical research project, building their knowledge of research methods in psychology and developing skills in the conduct of research in organisational contexts. In doing so, the MSc Organisational Psychology equips students with the knowledge base and practical skills necessary for a career in occupational psychology. It also provides a strong foundation for those who would consider progressing to a Doctor of Philosophy programme.
The MSc Organisational Psychology is based within the Work, Organisation and Management (WOM) Department in the Management School and delivered by leading academics and experts in their field, directly informed by their research.
