Psychology and Buddhism (NEW TIME)
Student Directed Seminar – Psychology and Buddhism (ASTU400)

Time: Thursday 5-8pm (PLEASE NOTE THAT THE TIME HAS CHANGED FROM PREVIOUS VERSIONS)

Students will participate in open discussion, creating and sharing knowledge about the interaction of Buddhist psychological concepts (i.e. suffering, no-self, and bare attention) with modern psychological research. We will explore and criticize empirical findings regarding social and clinical applications of appropriated Buddhist concepts, delving deeply into the science of the self, meditation, and mindfulness. Students will gain the skills necessary to critically analyze modern Buddhist literature from a scientific perspective and evaluate scientific research based on Buddhist psychology.

Prerequisites: Coursework and/ or interest in either psychology and/or buddhism
