This course gives students opportunities to study
individual and group psychology. Students learn how the knowledge,
methods, and theories of psychologists are applied to analyzing human behavior.
The course is organized to help students develop critical attitudes toward
superficial generalizations about human behavior, to recognize the tentativeness
of propositions about human behavior, and to achieve a better understanding
of human behavior in general.

This course introduces students to one of the major
branches of history, archaeology. Students will be exposed
to the story of archaeology, its development from "The Study of Antiquity"
to the science it is today, and will understand the relationship between
history and archaeology. Case studies and field trips to local sites
will provide students with a "hands on" approach to the material.
