Industrial-Organizational psychology is a rapidly growing field as companies seek to improve their workers’ performance and satisfaction with their work.

Industrial-Organizational psychology examines such things as training, employee development, productivity, motivation, and leadership. You will learn to apply psychological principles to individuals, teams, and organizations to improve the workplace.
