The Master of Arts in Organisational Psychology program at Schellhammer Business School merges the social, commercial, and psychological processes that operate and impact upon all organisations and delves into how they shape the performance and well-being of both the individuals and the institutions. New and critical insights for diagnosing and addressing organisational structures, problems, potential solutions, explaining job performance, understanding workplace relations, and improving organisational capabilities will be examined.

At the heart of all organisations are people and by pursuing this degree, students will acquire state of the art people focused knowledge and the key organisational psychology processes that can leverage the best from the workforce.

Specific areas such as motivation, the value of incentives, the application of learning and fostering creativity, understanding, and creating an organisational culture and identity, guiding effective leadership, sound decision making, creating a productive work environment of well-being, teamwork, innovation, and sustainable organisational change are just some of the topics that will be studied.

As part of your final graduation, you will be required to undertake an applied qualitative or quantitative research thesis under the guidance of a Thesis Advisor.
