The Master of Science in Industrial/Organizational Psychology curriculum is designed according to the guidelines developed by the Society for Industrial/Organizational Psychology for master's degree programs in I/O Psychology. Our 42 credit program consists of 9 core courses including a customized internship that provides real-world experience in areas such as corporate performance, personnel testing and human resources, and 5 electives with specializations in either human resources or organizational development. It is this adherence to the scientific method that distinguishes our I/O degree from general organizational psychology or related programs. It is the I/O field's dedication to the use of the scientific method that qualifies it to be considered by many as a STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) field.
