Industrial Psychology Society (IPS)

Industrial Psychology Society's vision and mission:

IPS's visions is to 

• To create opportunities for the students within the Industrial Psychology Department to gain knowledge of the field they are entering, in order to aid in building a career from as early as possible. 
• To provide exposure to the working world through informative events.
• To raise awareness of the fields of Industrial Psychology and Human Resources.
• A necessary inclusive community that is professional and approachable.

Our mission is to represent the academic interests of all students within the Department of Industrial Psychology as well as the University as a whole. Students’ interests are addressed by means of a student representative system that strives towards accountability, inclusivity, transparency and meeting the needs of all fellow students.

What are we currently doing?

Industrial Psychology Society will run Success club sessions on Saturday and during the week, also a year end trip for the students to Stellenbosch University.
