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 course will provide students with an introduction to the scientific study of the behavior of organisms. Students will be introduced to all of the major subfields in psychology, including such areas as biopsychology, developmental psychology, and cognitive psychology. This course will also introduce students to the research process and provide them with a foundation to critically and scientifically understanding the way people think, feel, and behave. Students taking this class will be inspired by the fact that several key figures in the field of Psychology originated from Austria and neighboring Germany (e.g., Freud, Wundt). A visit to the Freud Museum in Vienna will be recommended.

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.
