PSYC 2110 - Interacting Effectively in a Diverse Society: Psychological Approaches

3 Class Hours 0 Laboratory Hours 3 Credit Hours
Prerequisite: None.
Constructive interaction with people from multiple identity groups is a critical skill in our modern global society. However, most Americans have little background or training for productive multicultural interaction. This course will draw on the extensive work in social psychology and multicultural counseling to enhance student self-awareness and skill in interacting with those from a wide range of backgrounds. Coursework will involve readings from both psychology and literature, viewing of relevant films, and participation in experiential learning exercises and dialogues.
