“The School of Human Sciences at the University of Greenwich is expanding its portfolio of professional MSc programmes in Psychology with a new MSc in Occupational Psychology. Subject to British Psychological Society accreditation, this Masters will represent "Stage 1" towards becoming a Chartered Occupational Psychologist should students go on to complete the "Stage 2" supervised practice requirement.”
“We'll be examining theory, evidence and modern practices in all five key British Psychological Society curriculum domains: psychological assessment, learning and training, leadership and engagement, wellbeing, and work design and change. You will also get to study the latest research practices inspired by open-science across qualitative and quantitative research method modules, in addition to studying a module dedicated to giving you the skills and confidence necessary to adopt evidence-based practices. There’s no exams, just practical assignments, and the programme adopts a global-goals-informed approach, designed to provide space to learn and develop skills as individuals and society members.”
“Our programme has been designed as a blended online and on-campus experience, written and delivered decolonised from scratch to ensure you have a safe and inclusive learning environment as you gain the knowledge, skills and contacts you need to springboard into a career in Occupational Psychology. As part of your learning experience there will be opportunities to gain practical experience in a range of fields and to co-lead an international research collaboration project as part of your final semester empirical project.”
“We anticipate many students will continue their accreditation path via Stage 2 (supervised practice) towards employment as Chartered Occupational Psychologist in industry or the Civil Service. The programme will also provide a strong grounding for careers in consultancy, enterprise, human resources, science communication and data science. The programme is highly focussed on skill development so whilst these reflect common employment destinations, this programme is beneficial for personal development in a wide range of professional careers.”
