Description: Through this course, students will learn about developmental psychology and developmental outcomes within the context of immigration. Given that the Houston metropolitan area hosts the fourth highest number of children
of immigrants in the entire country, this course will provide students with the opportunity to connect theoretical knowledge with community related issues. Throughout the semester, the students will read recent scientific articles
and policy-related reports that will provide background information for in-class discussions. In addition, students will engage in class exercises to brainstorm about local and national issues related to the course content. As a semester project, students will select a topic for further exploration resulting in a written essay and oral representation to the class.
