Field of Study:
21,700/Yr
The Industrial-Organizational Research specialization prepares students to conduct applied research in business and organizational settings. Students acquire conceptual tools, knowledge of research methods, and skill in data analysis to understand recruiting, person-job fit, employee selection, job analysis, performance management and related processes.
A second emphasis of the Industrial-Organizational Research specialization is the application of research methods and data analysis skills within an organization. Students are trained to design, administer, and interpret job satisfaction surveys, organizational climate surveys, and other important measures. Students are also taught how to conduct program evaluations and complete job analysis projects.
Competence in applied research is based on the ability to design applied research, gather and analyze data, and determine the meaning and significance of results. Therefore, coursework emphasizes statistical analysis techniques and research methods. Content courses in industrial-organizational psychology build on these courses in terms of specific applications of research methods and statistical analysis. Electives may be used to augment both research skills and content areas.
This specialization is designed to be completed in one and one-half to two years and culminates with a thesis or research project. While it is expected that all students will have the opportunity to participate in the solution of actual problems under the guidance of faculty, selected students also have the opportunity for field placements in business settings.
The first year of the Industrial-Organizational Research specialization typically consists of the program core, quantitative methods, research design, field research methods, and substantive courses in industrial-organizational psychology and consumer behavior. During the second year, the student typically enrolls in elective courses while working on the thesis or research project.
