该计划使其毕业生能够运用基础科学知识和方法论来改善组织绩效并提高客户和员工满意度。它基于这样的理念：研究人员和从业人员在共同关心的问题上进行合作时会受益。该课程以霍夫斯特拉大学提供的几个研究生课程为基础，特别是工业/组织（I / O）心理学的硕士课程，心理学的博士课程以及Frank G. Zarb商学院的MS和MBA课程。它与这些计划的不同之处在于其多学科的观点以及对组织相关方法的重视，这些方法将科学，应用，心理学和组织研究综合在一起。该计划旨在继续教育已经完成社会科学或商业硕士学位的学生。该课程的毕业生
This program enables its graduates to apply basic scientific knowledge and methodology to improve organizational performance and to increase customer and employee satisfaction. It is based on the philosophy that researchers and practitioners benefit when they collaborate on problems of mutual interest. This program builds on several graduate programs offered by Hofstra University, especially the MA program in industrial/organizational (I/O) psychology, the doctoral programs in psychology, and the MS and MBA programs in the Frank G. Zarb School of Business. It differs from these programs in its multidisciplinary perspective and in its emphasis on organizationally relevant methodology, which together synthesize science, application, psychology and organizational studies. The program is designed to continue the education of students who have already completed a master's degree in a social science or business. Graduates of this program have expertise in two major areas: (1) applications of research methods and statistics to practical problems in organizations, and (2) disciplines related to working in organizations, such as industrial/organizational psychology, HR management and organizational behavior.
