MSC ORGANISATIONAL PSYCHOLOGY
This 12-month full-time course is targeted at people who have a first degree in Psychology – a BSc in Psychology (UK only) or equivalent degree (overseas) – and who want to specialise in the field of organisational and work psychology. This new course takes advantage of the growing demand by MNCs and UK companies for psychologists who can apply the latest psychological thinking.
About
The MSc is ideal for people who want to be at the cutting-edge of practice and psychological research into workplaces. Students will work with a world class team who are members of Norwich Business School’s highly-respected Employment, Systems and Institutions group (ESI). As well as a large programme of activity around wellbeing, staff who teach on the course also conduct research on ethics, leadership, creativity and climate change.
Their research is used to inform policy and guidance issued by government departments as well as to inform practice across commercial organisations, the public sector and professional institutions, providing real-life examples of applied research in action. This ensures you graduate with a solid grasp of contemporary challenges to workplace and the latest theories and techniques in Organisational Psychology and the main challenges surrounding them. You will become expert in the latest techniques and knowledge that inform in-depth understanding of Organisational Psychology.
