  • PSY 295: Environmental Psychology

    3.00 Credits
    Le Moyne College

    This course is an examination of the, often subtle, interrelationship between the built and natural environments and human behavior. Although we don’t always realize it, our behavior is affected by the physical world in many ways. Environmental factors such as lighting, crowding, privacy invasion, weather, architecture and pollution can each play a role in determining our thoughts and actions. These thought and actions, in turn, help determine the positive and negative impact we make on the environment. Students will examine the theories, research methods and practical applications of this important field to develop a better understanding of how environmental psychology applies to their everyday lives. Prerequisite: PSY 101.
