PSYC 424 Public Service Campaigns - Fall 2011
Students in PSYC 424 (The Psychology of Communication & Persuasion) are charged with developing an evidence-based public service video campaign to serve their campus, county and/or state communities. The students have worked throughout the semester to apply what they've learned about the science of social influence to structure a two-minute video and a marketing campaign to promote positive social change.
The project culminates in a formal defense in which each group presents their project and then fields questions from a board of psychologists and university administrators. It is without a doubt among the most intense scholarly experiences our students encounter and fantastic preparation for both the professional and academic tracks.
