This course covers a wide variety of topics from the nervous system and the brain, to learning and memory, disorders and treatment, and social psychology. Through class lectures and a hands-on laboratory component, we will examine real human brain specimens, understand why we sleep and what dreams are for, observe childhood development in action, explore how psychological disorders are treated, and examine how prejudice plays out in the courtroom. Students will learn to read, write, and think like a psychologist and understand how psychologists ask their research questions.
