“In the midst of chaos, there is also opportunity,” Sun Tzu, Art of War.

For some of us, the world may seem like it’s spinning out of control and we’re spinning out of control with it. Many of us have never experienced a world changing event like the global COVID-19 pandemic, and hopefully, this will be a once in a lifetime moment. 

As entrepreneurs, we’re used to risk. We took risks to take an idea, craft and mold that idea, and build something that we think would be valuable to society. Our businesses grew out of creativity, passion, and drive. At our most optimistic moments, we believe that the same creativity, innovation, and drive will help us get through this crisis, while displaying our values and character along the way.

The Online Industrial Organizational Psychology program at Saint Peter’s allows students to be employed full-time while also advancing their education and careers.

Our unique program offers students a high-quality education at an affordable price. The 36-credit degree provides you with the training to improve workplace performance and the know-how to analyze big data in a business setting. We have two-track options available (MS or MA degree). Both programs follow a scientist-practitioner model by focusing on scientific and empirical research to help solve problems in organizations. As a full-time student or working professional, you can finish your degree in as fast as 15 months. Set yourself apart with a graduate degree that prepares you to become a leader in a global world.

Radford University offers both the MA and MS in I-O Psychology.  As a long standing, respected program with distinguished alumni, RU I-O requires 37 credits over 21 months through small, face-to-face courses.  We offer a balance of “I” and “O” with a heavy emphasis on client projects and applications of data science.  More information can be found at https://www.radford.edu/content/chbs/home/psychology/programs/industrial-organizational.html or by contacting nreilly@radford.edu .  Please share this notice with prospective students. 

The COVID-19 pandemic has fundamentally altered many aspects of work and nonwork life, with both short-term and likely long-term effects. There are many potential ways that the science of applied psychology can contribute to the public good and enhance our understanding of how COVID-19 has affected employees, leaders, teams, families, organizations as well as the communities in which these groups reside in. The faster that we can bring our scientific evidence to others, the more we can help.

The Journal of Applied Psychology (http://www.apa.org/pubs/journals/apl/) invites quantitative and qualitative papers directly related to the pandemic. To be clear, the goal of this Call for Papers is to understand work- and employment-related phenomena associated with the COVID- 19 pandemic. Therefore, although data collected prior to COVID-19 could be used for comparison or linkage purposes, we are interested in research that directly informs our scientific understanding of the COVID-19 experience. To ensure relevance beyond COVID-19, we expect all submissions to discuss the implications of their findings beyond the current crisis in some manner.
