This is the first in a series of three one-semester-hour courses, spread over three years, in which psychology majors explore interactions between themselves, psychological theory and research, and their opportunities for education, career, and community engagement. Core concepts in developmental psychology, emerging adulthood, and identity are considered. Students investigate the relevance of their personal strengths, challenges, values, and goals for: success as a psychology major; effective preparation for possible post-degree education; employment opportunities following the Bachelor's degree; careers in related fields requiring further study; careers requiring graduate study in psychology; and, applying psychology to make a positive difference in their communities and the broader world. NOTE: Equivalent of one class hour per week, normally clustered into longer, less frequent classes. 09-09-2021-02-12-2021 Lecture Thursday 06:30PM - 09:30PM, SDU Main Bldg, Room 213
