Why study a Masters in Occupational Psychology?
## Occupational psychologists focus on the performance of people at work and during training, helping organisations to recruit, retain and realise the potential of their human resources (HR). This includes learning to identify individuals’ abilities, support the development and deployment of appraisals and reward systems, as well as managing health, safety and the work-life balance. In addition to the practical skills and knowledge gained in Occupational Psychology, there are several other reasons to consider pursuing a Masters in this field. For one, the demand for qualified Occupational Psychologists is growing, with many businesses recognising the value of investing in their employees' performance and wellbeing. This demand is expected to continue increasing as the world of work evolves and organisations seek to remain competitive. Furthermore, a Masters in Occupational Psychology can provide opportunities for personal and professional development, including networking with other professionals in the field, attending conferences and workshops, and engaging in ongoing learning and research. The skills and knowledge gained in this programme can also be applied to a variety of settings, including government agencies, non-profit organisations, and academic research institutions. You may wish to specialise in a certain aspect of Occupational Psychology. For example, some occupational psychologists advise on changing behaviours to improve customer service, while others will work more broadly. Generally, your focus depends both on your interests and organisational needs. You might be employed within an organisation’s HR department to offer regular career counselling, or you could work as a consultant on an independent basis.Refine your search
