Course description
This course provides in-depth training in specific areas of social psychology. The course is intended to build on PSYC2040 (Social and Organisational Psychology) by exploring content from that course in greater detail (eg stereotyping and prejudice) and also by addressing new topic areas in social psychology not covered in that course (eg collective action, war and conflict). These topics will be discussed in reference to theory and research, as well as with an eye to the applied implications for promoting positive change and addressing ongoing social issues in the real-world.
