Today I found out about various elective classes that I get to choose from within the Penn GSE Applied Psychology & Human Development Department. As part of the Counseling program, we take a certain number of electives, depending on the particular track we are pursuing. Students in the Mental Health track get to choose three elective courses, while students in the School Counseling track take one elective. Our elective classes have to fulfill sociocultural, human development, or research requirements for our curriculum. To give you an idea of the electives offered within our department, I've attached a list of the courses that were available for second-year students this semester.
I'm not positive if the same courses will be available next spring, but I would be really interested in taking a few of the ones listed. I think the Human Sexuality course would be riveting, especially since Dr. Schultz has a Master's degree in the topic.
All of our electives are taken during the second year of our program. Below is the planned program of study for the second year of the Mental Health track, which outlines the courses we take each semester.
