To find universities offering relevant doctoral programs, you need to search for programs in:
* Industrial-Organizational Psychology (I/O Psychology): This is the most common and widely accepted name for the field. Many universities offering doctoral programs in psychology will have an I/O specialization.
* Organizational Psychology: This focuses more on the organizational aspects and might have less of an "industrial" emphasis (e.g., less on selection and training, more on organizational culture and leadership).
* Human Factors and Ergonomics: While related, this is a distinct field often housed in engineering or human factors departments rather than psychology departments. A doctoral degree in this area can be highly relevant to certain aspects of industrial psychology.
To find universities with these programs, I recommend searching online using the following strategies:
* Use specific search terms: Search for "PhD Industrial-Organizational Psychology," "PhD Organizational Psychology," or "PhD Human Factors" along with "University rankings" or "University programs" to filter results.
* Look at university psychology department websites: Go directly to the psychology department websites of universities known for strong psychology programs (e.g., universities consistently ranked highly in psychology). Check their graduate program listings.
* Use online graduate program directories: Websites like Peterson's, US News & World Report, and others list graduate programs by field.
Keep in mind that the specific coursework and emphasis of these doctoral programs can vary considerably between universities. Carefully review the curriculum of each program to ensure it aligns with your career goals.
