PSY1010: Introduction to Psychology

Abstract

In this course you should gain the following: 1. A basic understanding of a broad range of topics in the field of psychology. Obviously we cannot cover the whole field of psychology in one course, but you should leave the course with a basic understanding of several of the core domains that psychologists focus on. 2. A preparation for more advanced courses in psychology. 3. Further development of your scientific & analytic thinking skills. Although psychology can be viewed through many lenses, an ongoing theme of the course will be viewing psychology as a science.
