Students learn the basics of qualitative inquiry and apply these skills to questions of civic development and empowerment in late adolescence/emerging adulthood. May be repeated. Cannot be taken S/U. Prerequisites: PSY 100 and PSY 202. Additional coursework in developmental psychology is highly recommended. Enrollment limited to 12. Juniors and seniors only. Instructor permission required.
