Apply psychological science in workplaces and communities
Online or on campus

Psychology explains human behaviour — applied psychology puts that science to work. Brigant's MA covers cognitive and social foundations, psychometric assessment, wellbeing at work, and evidence-based coaching. You will critique research, design small-scale studies, and apply ethical frameworks for vulnerable populations. This is not a clinical licensure programme; it prepares graduates for organisational and community roles.

Dr. Emma Laurent researches workplace burnout interventions; Professor Alex Morgan teaches psychometrics and assessment ethics.
