ORGANIZATIONAL PSYCHOLOGY (MRES/PROFESSIONAL DOCTORATE)

Due to unprecedented demand this programme is oversubscribed. Any further applications are likely to be considered for entry in 2020-21 only. (Four to five years part-time)

The Professional Doctorate in Organizational Psychology is an accredited University of London doctoral degree and will be the first UK alternative to the British Psychological Society's (BPS) Stage 2 Qualification in Occupational Psychology. Subject to accreditation by the BPS and Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC), it will also confer eligibility for registration with the HCPC as a practitioner psychologist (occupational) as well as chartered status and eligibility for full divisional membership of the BPS (pending accreditation).

If you hold a BPS-accredited Master's degree in organisational/occupational and/or business psychology, and you are in related employment, this doctorate will let you apply your learning directly in the workplace and use your work experience to inform your research. 

The first two years will develop your professional competence and prepare you for independent research and practice through the following six professional practice portfolios:

Leadership, Engagement and Motivation
Learning, Training and Development
Psychological Assessment at Work
Wellbeing and Work
Work Design, Organisational Change and Development
Extended Case Study and Presentation.
If you successfully complete this stage, you can either graduate with an MRes in Professional Practice in Organizational Psychology or progress to Years 3 and 4 to develop your competence in research methods and consolidate your skills as an evidence-based practitioner and researcher so that you can complete a 40,000-50,000-word doctoral thesis.

coaching, careers and lifespan development
diversity and inclusion in the workplace

leadership and critical management studies
organisational sociology 
professional development and training
selection and assessment 
worklife balance, boundary management and digitisation of work
