| Industrial Psychology
No
organisation can function effectively without productive employees. The
key to the economic survival of organisations and our country therefore
lies in the optimal development and utilization of South Africa's most
precious resource, namely its workers. This is exactly the focus of
Industrial Psychology: the optimal development and utilization of human
resources in the work situation. Industrial Psychology is not only an
exciting, dynamic and growing science, but also plays a key role in the
economic progress of organisations and our country.
The Department
of Industrial Psychology, the first of its kind to be founded in South
Africa, has established a distinguished tradition of academic
excellence over the years and continues to strive to provide all
sectors of the South African economy with top quality graduates. This
department is proud of the fact that many of its graduates are employed
in top leadership and business positions both in the public and private
sectors. Lecturers who are acknowledged scientists, but who also have
extensive practical experience teach the students of the Department of
Industrial Psychology. Moreover, the Department boasts the most modern
training and research facilities, especially in the field of computer
and information technology.
