There has never been a better time to consider advancing your degree.
COVID-19 has caused many of us to think differently about the future, including the future of our careers. Now is a great time to invest in your future by earning an advanced degree. Despite your undergraduate or graduate degrees and no matter your current field of employment, a master’s degree in industrial-organizational psychology will improve your understanding of human behavior in work settings and how to inspire a healthy and positive work environment.
IO psychology is a fast-growing field that applies psychological research to the workplace in order to make organizations more productive and profitable, and also to improve the well-being of employees. Students learn how jobs are defined and staffed within organizations, how teams work together, how to increase employee satisfaction, how to reduce conflicts and problems, and how to implement management techniques to boost company performance.
