Why choose this course?

This course is ideal if you want to apply the science of psychology to people at work, with roles including in-house and external consultancy, HR, organisational development, public sector and research. You will learn how to successfully drive sustainable change at work through rigorous science, data, technology, and experiential projects.

You will use psychological methods and specialist software. Additional short courses cover psychometric testing, for a fraction of the private market cost.

What you will study

The course also considers how other disciplines such as human resource management and sociology inform occupational and business psychology.

The modules for this course investigate various approaches to applying psychological principles in the workplace and how these ideas can increase organisational, team and individual performance. You will learn to critically evaluate the evidence base when making decisions.

You will apply theories and evidence to case studies, examples from the field and real-life practice. You will also learn about ethical considerations and your role as a psychologist in organisations, enhancing your professional skills. You will complement this by learning about ways of overcoming the barriers many occupational and business psychologists face when trying to implement their programmes in an organisation.
