International Joint Master of Research in Work and Organizational Psychology

Under which conditions does work stimulate human flourishing and when does it harm well-being and health? How can you design and evaluate organizational interventions? What determines the effectiveness of a team? How do you stimulate innovation and entrepreneurship? And what are effective human resources practices? These are some of the topics that a Work and Organizational Psychologist studies.

The International Joint Master of Research in Work and Organizational Psychology goes one step further and prepares you for a research career within or outside the walls of academia.

Are you interested in both creation and valorisation of research outputs? Do you want to have a truly international study experience that takes you to three universities:  Maastricht University (Netherlands), Leuphana Universität Lüneburg (Germany), and Universitat de València (Spain)? Then read more about the International Joint Master of Research in Work and Organizational Psychology.
