Chicago, IL (PRWEB) February 10, 2016

Robert Morris University Illinois (RMU) and The Chicago School of Professional Psychology (TCSPP) have created a partnership through the establishment of an advanced graduate level program for students pursuing a doctoral degree in business psychology. The Chicago School of Professional Psychology is a nonprofit university, and one of the leading institutions devoted to psychology and related behavioral and health sciences.

The agreement between the two schools provides a post-graduate path for Robert Morris University students in the School of Business Administration program. As undergraduates, students will be granted admission to The Chicago School upon fulfilling application requirements, the completion of specific coursework, and a minimum GPA. With the objective of completing a Ph.D. in Business Psychology, students will begin graduate work at The Chicago School during the last 36 quarter hours of their Bachelor of Business Administration program at RMU, and complete doctoral studies at TCSPP. Undergraduate degrees will be conferred by RMU and the Ph.D. by The Chicago School.

Both Robert Morris University Illinois and The Chicago School of Professional Psychology are regionally accredited institutions. The new program is intended for RMU management students to matriculate to The Chicago School during their senior year to complete a Ph.D. Together the schools are providing a new pathway for doctoral study to college students in the greater Chicago area.

“We are pleased to provide the opportunity for advanced graduate study in business psychology to our students,” said Larry Nieman, dean of the School of Business Administration. “Forming relationships with institutions such as The Chicago School encourages our students to think beyond a bachelor’s and a master’s degree. Facilitating the process helps to ensure their success.”

“We are delighted to have the opportunity to serve the students of Robert Morris University,” said Michele Nealon-Woods, Psy. D., president, The Chicago School of Professional Psychology. “Our suite of business psychology programs prepares graduates to assume high-level responsibilities in today’s global and multicultural business environment.”
