Moral Psychology Minor
Developing a new moral psychology minor featuring community-engaged learning opportunities
How can we achieve ethical and sustainable solutions to social problems when people disagree about what’s right and wrong? The field of moral psychology takes on challenging questions like these, crossing disciplines to illuminate social, cultural and institutional influences on moral behavior.
This grant team is developing a minor in moral psychology that includes coursework from across disciplines and community-engaged learning opportunities that bring the coursework to life. Students who complete the minor will be prepared to lead the future development of scientifically informed solutions for today’s ethical challenges.
