This course explores the many ways in which cultural norms influence ideas, beliefs, and actions. Covering consumerism, media, advertising, globalization, public relations, economics, and politics, this course provides a foundation for understanding the ways in which people, and the choices they make, are shaped by their culture.

Please Note: Only register for this course under the direction of your faculty advisor/mentor. If you have questions about which course to register for and when, please contact HECP Director Mary Pat Champeau.
