ENVIR 431A: Ecopsychology 

"Explores psychology of the human relationship with nature. Critically examines how ecopsychology can impact urban sustainability, human health, environmental education, and the design of new technologies. Specific topics include evolutionary psychology; human-animal interaction; biophilia; children and nature; indigenous cultures; and ecotherapy."

 

 

This class was instructed by Peter Kahn, my research proprietor, and Capstone faculty advisor. This class was based on readings by ecopsychologists around the world, and discussions about outdoor education, zoo ethics, and ecopsychological research methods. My final paper was this essay.
