About The School of Industrial Psychology and Human Resource Management
We live in a technology-driven world, but we cannot deny the fact that humans are an integral part of every business. At the heart of every successful business lies the human resources team who drives all aspects of staff management, growth and potential development.

At the NWU we pride ourselves to deliver quality. The School of Industrial Psychology and Human Resource Management is the house for behavioural scientists. One of the ways we ensure good quality and industry relevance is by partnering with professional bodies such as the Health Professions Council of South Africa (HPCSA), the Society of Industrial and Organisational Psychology South Africa (SIOPSA), and the South African Board of People Practices (SABPP). We, therefore, value the input and expertise that is shared on this platform.
Our School
The school serves our industry through innovative research and by passionately developing employable students who can think critically and impact the workplace and society with relevant solutions to business and people problems. We have a mind for business and a heart for people.






“Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts.”
