Postgraduate Prospectus

Course Specific Facilities
This course falls under the Occupational Health Cluster, which fields an experienced team of applied psychologists in the fast growing discipline of occupational health psychology and arguably offers the foremost centre of its kind in this country (possibly Europe).

It is an excellent centre of learning for those interested in this area and in health and safety management. It is particularly strong in risk management for work and organisational hazards, work-related stress and violence, OSH management for SMEs, workplace health promotion and organisational learning

The Institute of Work, Health and Organisations is an independent postgraduate research institute in applied psychology and related areas.

It is committed to promoting the contribution of applied psychology to occupational and pubic health and safety, and to the development of successful and healthy organisations and communities.

In the most recent national assessments, the Institute, with the School of Psychology was awarded 24/24 for its education provision (with a commendation for teaching) and, with the Nottingham University Business School, a 5 rating (international standing) for its research.

There are a number of Computer Rooms spread across its campuses. These rooms are conveniently located in all University Libraries and in various other locations across the University. 

The majority of Computer Rooms are open to all members of the University and contain PC workstations and printing facilities. In some of the larger rooms, more specialised equipment is provided, such as text and image scanners, colour printing and high powered Unix workstations.

Most Computer Rooms are open 24-hours a day, though access out of core times will require a valid Smart Card to gain entry through the door access system. For security and safety purposes, these areas are monitored by closed circuit television.

Once registered, students of the University can connect their own PCs to the University's data network from their study bedrooms.  They can also access IT services and facilities when working away from the University.
