Course overview
The Adler University Master of Arts and Master of Industrial and Organizational Psychology (MAIOP | MIOP) are 38-credit programs designed to prepare emerging and experienced professionals to become transformative leaders capable of revolutionizing workplace cultures and driving organizational success.Also known as workplace psychology, students have two pathways: the MAIOP, which focuses on conducting original research through a traditional thesis process, and the MIOP, which culminates in a literature-based capstone project – each option providing an opportunity for students to become subject matter experts in their field of study. Both programs uniquely integrate theoretical knowledge, evidence-based practices, and psychological insights incorporating real-world applications. Students gain expertise in psychometric assessment, strategic hiring practices, and leadership development, and learn to master change management strategies that enhance workplace well-being, drive performance, and generate significant organizational impact.
