MSc Wireless Communication Systems

Our Work Psychology MSc is ideal for applicants who do not already have the Graduate Basis for Chartered Membership with the BPS.

You’ll learn how to apply psychological theories and principles to the work environment to improve employee satisfaction and wellbeing as well as performance and productivity. You can apply these skills as a consultant to businesses or members of staff.

The course can involve a dissertation based on your interests in a real-world organisation, which will demand effective communication, negotiation and project-management skills. Alternatively, around half to two thirds of students take a project sourced through the Institute of Work Psychology’s business network or the Management School’s Employability Hub, solving real-world organisational issues. The dissertation project provides you with the chance to apply your knowledge to practical issues and develop organisational skills.

Throughout the course, hands-on workshops focus on developing psychology skills such as coaching, providing feedback, delivering presentations, using statistical software, group work and information management. Included in the course, at no charge, is additional training which allows you to work as a psychometric assessor for both ability and personality psychometric tests.

Recent dissertations included evaluating the effectiveness of the selection processes used by a large organisation; exploring the effects of home working on efficiency and wellbeing and; analysing the effects of workplace training interventions.

The Management School is Triple Crown accredited by AMBA, EQUIS and AACSB.
