Can innovation and creativity be taught? How can psychology be used in sales and marketing? Does being a good team player depend on the fit between your role and personality? Is there a blueprint for a 21st century career?

Our MSc Psychology in Business is designed for graduates in psychology or a related discipline. You’ll learn advanced skills needed to thrive in a range of organisations, from start-ups to multinationals.

We pride ourselves on the fact that our course is designed to be organic – which means you’ll learn from undertaking projects and activities that are derived from your own motives, knowledge and experience.
