| Start Date: 09/07/2022 End Date: 12/20/2022 |
| Term: Fall Semester 2022 |
| Description: We make choices every day, from choosing what we eat for breakfast to what career we want to pursue. How do we make these choices -- choices that can have immediate rewards but also long-lasting consequences? In this course, we will examine the neurobiological and psychological mechanisms of decision making. We will explore how theories from both the biological and social sciences have combined to help us understand why and how we make the decisions we do. |
