About this course
The Trust Lab explores the role of social trust. What is the role of trust in how we feel, function, and collaborate? What does it mean for our health, our economies, and our societal structures? In the Trust Lab, we will examine theories and research on how trust is created, and how it can be repaired when broken. We will engage in experiential activities such as practical experiments, mini-research explorations, presentations, and discussion, bridging the gap between theory and real life applications. Students will work in groups to conduct independent research projects which will involve designing interventions intended to repair and/or increase social trust.
