Fostering connectedness in a changing world

October 16, 2021

The UTC Master's of Science program in Industrial-Organizational (I-O) Psychology invites you to participate in the 17th Annual River Cities I-O (RCIO) Psychology Conference. We look forward to welcoming you to a virtual conference event that promises to be engaging, relevant, and memorable. Our topical theme for this year is the ways in which we foster and facilitate social connectedness in our changing world. In keeping with RCIO tradition, we will be exploring many aspects of this thematic domain.  

The RCIO conference is a highly professional, yet student- and practitioner-friendly event that provides a positive, encouraging, and up-to-date applied educational experience. Our objective is to make the RCIO Conference Series the most rewarding mini-conference experience you can have each year. Learn more about this conference series by exploring this website and our archives.
