Industrial/Organizational Program

Welcome to the website for Industrial/Organizational Psychology Program at Central Michigan University!

The Department of Psychology at Central Michigan University offers a terminal Master’s degree (M.A.) and a Doctor of Philosophy degree (Ph.D.) in Industrial and Organizational (I/O) Psychology.

Industrial and Organizational Psychology is an applied area of psychology that is growing every day.  I/O Psychology has a dual commitment to the science and practice involved in applying psychology to the practical problems faced by people at work in a variety of organizations.

Improving worker productivity and the quality of work-life are the underlying goals of most I/O psychologists’ efforts.  Such activities include researching better ways for organizations to select and train employees and how to measure employee job performance.  Other activities may be related to motivational issues at work, factors that affect work group processes, and understanding when different types of leadership are most appropriate.
