PSY 329 - Advanced Self-Directed Projects (4 Cr.)


This course provides the opportunity for students to consult with each other toward identifying topics of individual interest in psychology and developing those interests into more fully developed projects and proposals. Projects may consist of empirical research; development of programs, services, or interventions, or creative artwork or writing. Students will review relevant literature and work with their instructor, a faculty project mentor, and their classmates to clarify and refine their interests into a well-defined topic of inquiry before moving toward the generation of a project proposal. Alternatively, some students may enter the class with a previously developed project proposal and will use the class as an opportunity to work toward implementation of their project. Counts as an “Advanced Practicum Experience” course in psychology. Does not count as a seminar. Prerequisite: Junior standing and at least 5 courses in psychology; or permission of the instructor. Spring semester. Patrick.
