DESCRIPTION
This course offers an understanding of how culture influences behavior from a psychological perspective, drawing on the theory and applications from the fields of cultural, intercultural and cross cultural psychology. Psychology offers insight and understanding to intercultural interaction in an increasingly globalized world.
The course presents a unique opportunity for you to combine academic learning with personal development in relation to your experience as sojourner (understand the influence of your culture on your behavior, your intercultural interactions and your cultural adjustment) during your study abroad period. To this end three classes are dedicated to the sojourner experience at relevant intervals in the course, permitting you to integrate your personal experience with psychological theory, thus enabling you to maximize your academic learning through vital experiences. Furthermore, a fourth class, in a similar vein, offers you the opportunity to identify skills acquired during your period of study abroad and how these skills can be used on your return home.
***The course is pending approval from the University of New Haven.***
