PSY5020 History & Systems of Psychology
Although psychology as a formal discipline is little more than a century old, psychological questions and phenomena have been the source of curiosity for millennia. This lecture/discussion course is designed to trace the intellectual roots of psychology (beginning with the early Greeks) by examining persistent ideas, methods of inquiry, significant individuals, and events that have conspired to produce psychology as we know it today. Prerequisites: PSY 1004: Fundamentals of Psychology (for juniors and seniors only). (Spring 14508 & 14509)
