PSYC - 230. Lifespan Development

3 credit(s)
This course is a chronological study of human development spanning conception to death from the perspective of developmental psychology. Students in this class will examine matters related to physical, cognitive, and socioemotional maturation at each stage of the lifespan and how these matters can enrich, delay, or otherwise alter developmental progression. Emphasis will be placed on theoretical principles, methods of study, and practical implications of developmental research, particularly how these principles and methods can be applied to health professions. This course does not fulfill the Psychology major’s Developmental area requirement, but may be taken as a Psychology elective.
