Widening career paths with the MSc Work & Organisational Psychology

The last three years have been a prime example of the changing nature of work, and as occupational psychologists, our knowledge and skills have been brought to the forefront as a profession that offers value to individuals, organisations and society.

The Covid-19 pandemic highlighted the importance of wellbeing at work, accelerated technological adaptation, and the adoption of flexible and remote working. Emerging from the pandemic, understanding the psychology of people at work is crucial for any professional who recruits, manages, counsels and develops people in the context of a ‘new normal’ (whatever that may mean in practice!). Organisations will need to motivate, engage, and retain employees, ensure their health and wellbeing, help individuals develop their skills, adapt to new digital technologies at work, and cope with unemployment or re-employment.

One of Strathclyde Business School’s newest Masters courses, the MSc Work & Organisational Psychology has been accredited by the British Psychological Society (BPS), making it the only BPS-accredited occupational psychology programme in Scotland.
