Sydney, Nov. 23, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Sydney, New South Wales -
ECU has launched a 100% online Master of Business Psychology for professionals who want to leverage psychology in the workplace while enjoying flexible learning.
With staff turnover increasing at over half of all workplaces and more employees questioning how work fits into their lives, ECU’s Master of Business Psychology online couldn’t have come at a better time.
Business psychology combines the science of human psychology with practical business application. The goal of business psychology is to improve the work environment for employees, improve productivity in businesses and organise groups of people in companies.
For those with experience in business, this business psychology master’s degree delivers learning outcomes in understanding of what drives human behaviour in the workplace. Anyone working in human resource management, strategy, change management or business operations will gain valuable skills for their CV, as well as the ability to develop and retain talented employees.
For those who have completed psychology courses or hold a psychology degree, it provides the link to apply psychological theories to business applications. With electives in project management, data analytics, marketing and management, this master’s degree can be tailored to prepare anyone with a bachelor degree in psychology who wants to apply their skills to the modern world of business.
Students with a four-year bachelor degree in areas like education, nursing and engineering are also eligible for entry, as well as students from other fields who may have completed an honours degree. This provides students from a wide range of backgrounds to expand their opportunities by learning about the field of business psychology.
Whatever your background, ECU’s online Master of Business Psychology empowers students with a specialist skillset that can help them stand out.
What makes this Master of Business Psychology different from courses at other universities is that you won’t find it in the School of Arts and Humanities – it’s delivered by a business school.
ECU’s School of Business and Law is accredited by the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB) – accreditation held by less than 6 per cent of the world’s schools offering business degree programs. In addition, ECU has been ranked number one for quality in The Australian Financial Review BOSS Best Business Schools list.
