Psychology is the science of thought and behavior.
For students who do not plan further psychology courses, it is intended to provide a general education concerning the findings of scientific psychology. For those who do plan further studies in this area, it functions as a gateway into the courses and opportunities of the department. Attendance at all lectures is expected. If you are unable to attend a lecture due to an emergency, it is your responsibility to get notes for that class and to ask Prof. Dien or the teaching assistant for further clarification. Students are enjoined not to disturb the classroom experience by holding conversations, reading newspapers, or otherwise distracting other students during lectures or exams.
