Concentrations
Industrial and Organizational
Beyond core requirements, students complete the major requirements by choosing a concentration. Based on a student’s primary interests, the choice of a concentration enables the student to begin to prepare for post-baccalaureate work in psychology. Concentrations should be declared in the spring semester of the sophomore year.
The industrial/organizational psychology concentration is directed toward students who have an interest in applying the knowledge and methods of psychology to business and organizational settings.
