Course Description

Students receive an overview of the most important psychological theories and their practical application in the business world. Great emphasis is placed on the practical relevance and applicability of the subject matter. Negotiation skills and presentation techniques are the key points of the training.

After successfully participating students will develop the following skills:

Students should plan to communicate with the professor and with other classmates regularly throughout the course. For individual issues, students should contact the professor directly by e-mail. . In the Subject line they should put: WIUU_Psychology_FirstNameLastName (e.g. WIUU Psychology John Smith) E-mail messages will normally be answered within 48 hours.

The study of technical courses is cumulative (i.e., an understanding of earlier material is necessary to grasp concepts covered later). Past experience has shown a high correlation between procrastination and low grades. Furthermore, procrastination will severely limit interaction with other students. Students must be committed to completing tasks on time.

This course will require2-3 hours per week outside of the classroom (the actual amount is dependent on each student's background). This requirement may influence the time allotted to other classes. A student with a "heavy" schedule (school combined with work and family) should be aware of the dedication that this course requires. These factors cannot be used for special consideration on assignment due dates in the class; therefore, the students must evaluate this requirement before proceeding with the course.
