Industrial and organizational psychology (I/O Psychology) majors study psychology as it applies to the workplace—attitudes of employees and employers, organizational behavior, workplace environment and its effects, and much, much more. You will probably study such things as personality, cognition, perception, and human development, as well as learn about the biological side of behavior and might be given the chance to take relevant business courses such as management, since you will focus on organizational settings.
