How can social psychology help address real-world problems? What careers align with this application?
Students in PSYCH 424 will explore how social-psychological research is used to understand and address problems in health, law and criminal justice, politics, environmental sustainability, disaster preparedness, and prejudice reduction. We will examine how psychologists’ theories and research skills have informed and evaluated the success of interventions. Guest speakers and hands-on activities will illustrate what applied social psychology looks like outside the classroom. You will investigate career opportunities that interest you, including the work people do, the education and skills needed, and how social psychology contributes to their work. Your semester-long project will culminate in your presentation of one of these opportunities.
This course is designed for upper-level psychology students who want to discover how their knowledge of psychology can be used beyond the classroom—and explore career opportunities.
