Module – Principles of Work Psychology

The module will be delivered in the first semester through synchronous classroom-based delivery and the VIRI classroom. The module introduces participants to an understanding of the principles of Work Psychology, paying particular attention to widespread psychological implications of work, such as the changing workforce and generational/cultural/individual psychological needs within a work setting. The teaching of the modular content will draw upon and relate to leadership and management roles, aspects of entrepreneurial ethos, mentoring and coaching in the workplace and/or customer relationship management – all of which is to prime and support the further development of these topic areas within the more specialized modules across the principal and embedded programmes.
