Description:

Session Cycle: Yearly Cycle: In this course, students will integrate the knowledge they have accumulated in their first three years as an applied psychology major through the development and investigation of their own applied psychology hypothesis. In collaboration with the instructor and with their classmates, students will proceed through the stages of research from hypothesis development, to literature review, to proposing their research methods, to data collection, with the project culminating in written and oral presentations of their findings. Additionally, students will have the opportunity to influence their classmates' projects, and have them influence their project, as they discuss and evaluate each other's work. After completing the course, students will be qualified to evaluate others' research as well as conduct their own research, a skill crucial to many applied psychology careers. 3.000 Credit Hours 3.000 Lecture hours Levels: Undergraduate Schedule Types: Directed Study, Lecture College of Arts and Sciences Undergraduate Division Applied Psychology Department Course Attributes: Applied Psychology Major, Liberal Arts Elective, Psychology Minor
