Fieldwork and Research Opportunities

In SLU's听doctoral program in industrial-organizational psychology, students will learn to conduct research on and in organizations and听how to apply psychological theory, models and principles in the workplace.

Through supervised research and professional experience, students are trained as science-practitioners and are expected to develop competence in research and, if their career goals warrant, organizational consultation.

While it is not required, most students take advantage of a vast network of professional connections that the program has established in St. Louis and complete practica (i.e., short-term projects) and/or internships (a one-year minimum commitment). Many students finish the program with two to three years of professional experience, making them attractive to potential employers.
