Whether inside an aircraft, at the office, or anywhere around the globe where people engage in work, there’s a critical need to provide insight into human behavior and how we interact with our jobs, our colleagues, and our world.

Industrial/Organizational psychology contributes to an organization’s success by improving the performance, experience, job satisfaction, and occupational safety and health of the entire organization, as well as the overall health and well-being of its employees. At Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University, The Bachelor of Science in Industrial/Organizational (I/O) Psychology builds future leaders and scholars who work in every industry at every level, creating ‘science for a smarter workplace’.
