Wake Forest University's Psychology Course, offered online, aims to impart a comprehensive understanding of the human mind and behavior. The scope of the course encompasses the exploration of various mental disorders, the formation of perceptions by the brain, the role of the unconscious mind in directing behavior, and the scientific basis of psychology. Participants get to delve into the study of disorders such as depression, anxiety, addiction, and schizophrenia. They also learn to identify abnormal behavior and emotions, and to think like scientists in their everyday lives. The course is delivered entirely online, with 30 hours of total instruction and coursework, including engaging multimedia simulations and curated assignments. It offers flexibility to learners, allowing them to tune in at any time convenient for them and engage with fellow students worldwide. The course spans over multiple sessions of one, two, and four weeks' duration. It is offered several times throughout the year, with the next available courses scheduled to begin in early September, mid-November, and late December. Dr. Christian Waugh, an Associate Professor of Psychology at Wake Forest University, and Dr. Melissa Maffeo, an Assistant Teaching Professor of Psychology at the same institution, serve as the academic leaders of the course. Dr. Waugh specializes in the utility of positive emotions during stress and temporal dynamics of emotions. Dr. Maffeo, with a PhD in Neuroscience, teaches courses on behavioral neuroscience, addiction, learning, and psychopharmacology. The course is open to students aged 13 and above. No specific prerequisites or eligibility criteria are mentioned, making it accessible to any interested learner. Upon completion, participants will earn a Certificate of Completion from Wake Forest University, demonstrating their gained knowledge and skills in the field of psychology.
