Master in Applied Organizational Psychology

Have you always wanted to know what holds the economy together at its core? Are you enthusiastic about the psychological background of personnel management? Are you fascinated by companies in transition? Are you interested in the factors that make up responsible corporate management? Or in the psychological aspects of marketing? Would you like to do research on such topics?

The economic and working world is constantly changing. That is why OTH Amberg-Weiden combines its business competence with questions of psychology in the master's program in Applied Organizational Psychology. You will not only analyze economic processes but also learn to recognize the underlying psychological factors. On this basis, you will help international companies, for example, to successfully shape their changes. In this way, you will acquire the skills you need as managers to drive forward personnel and organisational development with foresight, especially in companies operating abroad. You will also create the best prerequisites to accompany such change processes as mentor, coach or consultant. With your expertise, you are not only able to assess complex economic situations in a targeted manner, but you will also be able to assume responsibility for teams and organizations themselves. In view of your professional and social skills, you will also lead responsibly through difficult phases. You will also learn how to use empirical social research to analyze work and consumption-related issues. At the same time, given the teaching languages German and English, you will acquire the communicative competence to lead discussions - also in an international context.
