With an acute sense of the evolving needs and interests of undergraduate students in Psychology, Jonathan Gewirtz’s pedagogical philosophy dovetails with his research on empathy. His course on “Brain and Emotion” has a long waitlist, as does his summer program in Madrid that combines the study of Biological Psychology with a research laboratory internship. The numerous innovations he has introduced through his teaching and through his department’s curriculum are shaping the future of instruction in the field of Psychology.
