The research area of work and organisational psychology is currently part of the master’s programme specialisation: Work, Economy and Society. This specialisation focuses, among others, on the analysis and discussion of psychological processes, possibilities of intervention and prevention, and the evaluation of measures and changes in the context of work, education and economy. An overview of all courses of the master’s programme is available here.

Moreover, master’s students have the opportunity to write their master’s thesis on topics relating to our research area. We would like to allocate our resources for the supervision of master’s thesis as fairly as possible.
