Each year, UK universities prominent in work-related psychology studies are invited to nominate up to three of their best MSC research projects.
The students create a poster summarising their research, and judges from industry and the universities get the chance to question the students before each drawing up a shortlist of their top three projects, based on three criteria:
- innovation (is the research new?)
- research quality (is the methodology sound, are the conclusions justified by the data?)
- practical application (could this be used in the workplace?).
This year's winner was Organizational Psychology's Matthew Atkinson.
