鈥淭his title change reflects the reality that students at Austin Peay are receiving an in-depth exposure to major areas within the field of I-O psychology and not simply pursuing a general psychology program,鈥 said Dr. David Denton, dean of the APSU College of Behavioral and Health Sciences and an I-O psychologist. 鈥淭his change will raise the visibility of the program for potential employers, and thus enhance the job prospects of our graduates.鈥
