Industrial and Organisational Psychology
The Chair of Work and Organisational Psychology is currently held by PD Dr. phil. Maria Undine Kottwitz.
How can we organise work in such a way that people remain healthy, motivated and productive? And how can organisations meet the challenges of a changing world of work?
The Department of Work and Organisational Psychology at Otto von Guericke University Magdeburg addresses these and other questions.
Our research and teaching focus on people’s experiences and behaviour in the workplace. We investigate how working conditions, social relationships and organisational frameworks influence health, well-being, motivation and performance.
