PSYCH 295 Prejudice and Discrimination

1 Credit

This is a course for students to strengthen awareness in issues of racism, bias, stereotyping, and the like. We will explore psychological explanations for how these constructs develop in individuals, emotions involved in acknowledging them, and their implications. The goal of this course is to increase students’ awareness on the impact of their biases, and how to be a more empathic and sensitive human being in their interactions with others.

Prerequisite(s): PSYCH 101 (with a minimum grade of C)
