This course takes a bio-psycho-social approach to understanding good and evil. Through extensive seminar discussions students will gain an increased understanding of the diversity of perspectives on good and evil as well as the area's multidisciplinary nature, including influences such as: evolutionary, neurological, epigenetic, mental illness, personality, cognitive, developmental and situational factors which promote or inhibit good & evil. In addition to the content, students will actively develop more collaborative, integrative, critical thinking, reading, and writing skills.
