Organizational Studies

Organizational Studies is an interdisciplinary course of study focusing on economic, political, psychological and sociological factors that affect cooperative human systems. A major in Organizational Studies emphasizes an understanding of how organizations operate, how they affect society and how they are created, maintained and change. Students complete a range of classes across allied disciplines and are encouraged to design a specific thematic depth to complete their major.

Students interested in business administration, education, public health, organizational behavior, industrial psychology, labor relations, or sociology of work may find this program an appropriate preparation for either career or graduate work in these areas.
