PSYCH 392 Multicultural Psychology

3 Credtits

This course is intended to introduce and familiarize students with the concept of multicultural psychology. Generally speaking, this means we will be approaching the entire field of psychology from a perspective that is mindful of the diversity and equity in today’s society. In this course, we will examine systems of privilege, oppression, and institutionalized discrimination that influence and help maintain racism, sexism, heterosexism, and classism and their psychological consequences on the individual and society. We will learn about and practice dialogic listening.

Prerequisite(s): PSYCH 280 (with a minimum grade of C)
