The Bachelor of Arts with a major in Industrial/Organizational (I/O) Psychology serves as an excellent generalist foundation for beginning a career in the business world. The dual emphasis on business and psychology means that modern organizations can hire graduates who understand both human nature and the dynamics of organizational life.

Graduates can expect to work in jobs that involve performing tasks related to human resource assessment, selection and placement, performance appraisal, job analysis and re-design, leadership development, organizational effectiveness and other activities related to human resources. These skills position graduates for leadership opportunities throughout their careers. Thus, the I/O Psychology major prepares students to become lifelong learners and proactive career managers who can maneuver effectively in their chosen career trajectories.

Students will be prepared in the event they choose to earn an advanced degree, such as the Master of Business Administration or Master of Arts with a major in Industrial/Organizational Psychology (both of which are available at 91¸£ÀûÉç). Other students may choose to use this degree as a preparation for graduate work in fields such as law and health care as well as psychology.

In addition, undergraduates interested in an advanced degree in Industrial/Organizational Psychology may want to consider 91¸£ÀûÉç's accelerated 5-year degree program which saves tuition costs.  Please visit the I/O Psychology Accelerated 5-year Program page.
