Research Practicum in Sensation and Perception

3 credits

The course will introduce students to experimental methods used to understand human perception. In a hands-on, laboratory-style course format, students will become familiar with the process of designing perceptual experiments and the collection and analysis of perceptual data. As a final project, with guidance from the instructor each student will complete a perceptual experiment and prepare a report of their work in the style of a scientific publication.
