Business Psychology MSc / Occupational Psychology MSc – (M.Sc.)

This innovative development at the University of Worcester presents two postgraduate qualifications that apply psychology to business and organisations in general.

The Business Psychology MSc is open to students with a non-psychology related degree, although some elements of psychology or business should have been previously studied.

The Occupational Psychology MSc is only open to those students who hold a psychology degree with Graduate Basis for Registration (GBR) from the British Psychological Society (BPS).

The Occupational Psychology Masters is targeted at those wanting to become Chartered Occupational Psychologists.
Who Should AttendThe MSc Business Psychology is targeted at individuals with a background in business and an interest in the application of psychology to business contexts, such as Human Resource Management.

The MSc Occupational Psychology is targeted at those students wishing to continue their training towards Chartered Status in the BPS Division of Occupational Psychology.

The programme is taught in blocks, with each module being two blocks of two days (Friday and Saturday). The days are organized into blocks of different learning activities, e.g. presentation/facilitation by the tutor, practical exercises (individual and/or group task), discussion and reflection. Importantly, between the blocks the students are supported with additional reading, provided in the form of primary source articles, book chapters and practitioner journal articles. The programme has an 80% attendance requirement.
