Course Description:
With ever-increasing globalization, we are getting in touch with different cultures more and more. In a city such as Rotterdam, where people from over 100 countries live and work, knowledge and skills in cross-cultural contacts have become essential. This minor deals with various important themes across psychological subdisciplines, including emotions, identity and psychopathology in different cultures, cultural differences in education and in attachment, working in intercultural teams, well-being of expatriates and immigrants, and problems in conducting cross-cultural research and assessment. This minor is intended for all students who are interested in intercultural issues and in psychology. The minor aims to increase students’ awareness of cultural differences and contributes to the development of a broader academic attitude. Working during the course with students from diverse cultural backgrounds will deepen students’ knowledge through experiencing different cultural backgrounds and viewpoints themselves. The minor will be open for international students.
