The international labour market is changing rapidly, and with it work and organisational practices. By understanding these changes, organisations can adapt to new developments. This is where work and organisational psychologists come in.
To assist organisations in their sensemaking and interventions, psychologists need to possess basic and applied research competences. The International Joint Master of Research in Work and Organizational Psychology addresses a wide range of topics from organisational behaviour, to entrepreneurship practices, to advanced research methods, and it familiarises you with types of research that are relevant in academic and professional settings (like evaluation research, translational research, and intervention research).

The International Joint Master of Research in Work and Organizational Psychology trains psychologists according to a ‘scientist-innovator’ model. You’ll not only produce research targeted towards the scientific community. Rather, in our programme we define research broadly to include:
The programme gives you an up-to-date overview of Work and Organizational Psychology paired with high quality research training focused on basic and applied research. During the two years, you’ll develop indispensable competences for researchers who wish to create organisational and societal impact, like valorisation competence and cultural agility.
If you are self-starting, proactive, and able to overcome barriers you will find this programme a good fit. The active learning approach links up with these entrepreneurial attributes.
The International Joint Master of Research in Work and Organizational Psychology allows you to earn a joint degree from three renowned universities:
By studying in three countries, you’ll develop intercultural competences and gain a heightened sensitivity for the importance of international contexts in doing research.
