Course Descriptions

This course is designed to provide students with a positive perception of cultural diversity. The most important elements of cultural diversity, understanding and awareness, will be addressed. The aim of the course is to examine how “the mind shapes culture” and how “culture shapes the mind”. We will begin by discussing immigration and cultural diversity from the point of view of those who change cultural environment and those who find themselves in environment where they are minorities. Psychology of Cultural Diversity employs a blend of experiential learning theory to engage the learner in a unique and participative set of learning experiences. Increased awareness of cultural diversity can translate into more tolerance, respect, and appreciation for the uniqueness of all people and culture.
