Organizational Five-Year Program
Mission
The purpose of the organizational psychology program is to provide students with the finest possible education for practice and for becoming license-eligible in New Jersey and other states.
Definition of Organizational Psychology
The practice of organizational psychology consists of intervening with organizations to achieve one or more of the following objectives:
(1) raise performance,
(2) improve processes and relationships,
(3) enhance fairness and equity, and
(4) increase subjective well-being.
Always within the context of organizations, interventions may focus on individuals, pairs of individuals, groups, combination of groups, or whole organizations.
Methods of intervention derive from explicit psychological concepts and theories appropriate to the objectives and entities engaged in change processes.
Organizational psychology is practiced with service delivering and product generating organizations from the public private, and not-for-profit sectors of society.
