Offered each semester. A general introduction to the scientific study of the behavior of organisms. An honors section (1009) is available for qualified students.

This introductory course will provide students with basic knowledge and overview of the science and methods of psychology. The course is designed to provide an appreciation of human behaviors and applications in everyday lives.

The course will be conducted in a seminar format in which students will develop skills for critical thinking, content acquisition, writing, presentation of ideas in front of peers, the integration of contents in students’ own areas of interest, as well as small group collaboration in knowledge acquisition and presentation.

The University of New Orleans International Summer School program has a mandatory class attendance policy. All students are required to attend class for all morning classes and any required afternoon and/or weekend fields trips and lectures. No unexcused absences are allowed. However, LFU students who have to miss a UNO class due to LFU examinations in the first two weeks of our program, can receive one excused absence for this. Any further unexcused absences will result in an academic penalty. Each faculty member determines the penalty for missed classes. Most professors deduct a letter grade for each additional missed class day. For details, please refer to your course syllabi, which will be distributed on the first day of class.

Die Anrechnung der Kurse der UNO-IBK International Summer School muss von den Studierenden selbst vorab mit den zuständigen StudiendekanInnen geklärt werden. Diese allein entscheiden über die Anerkennung der belegten Kurse für das jeweilige Studienfach. Es wird empfohlen, sich einen Vorabbescheid über die Anerkennung der Kurse ausstellen zu lassen.
