FYSM 1306 A and B – Diversity in Psychological World Views
Offered by Psychology. Does not count as a major requirement.
Becoming culturally competent and understanding different diversity world views prepares you for the 21st century in the real world with a multicultural perspective. Once you enter university you’re expected to engage intellectually and socially with all types of people without fearing others because they are different from you. This course will engage you in ways that respect and honor differences and help you to understand and appreciate people from different cultural / ethnic and diverse backgrounds. When you begin to work in your chosen professions you will carry enthusiasm and openness that you have experienced in this class out into society. You will have a deeper desire to care, know, and learn about your neighbours not just next door but across the world.
Prerequisite(s): normally restricted to students entering the first year of a B.A., B.Cog.Sc., B.G.In.S. or B.CoMS program.
Seminar three hours a week.
