Course Description This course, intended for non-clinicians with an interest in psychiatric epidemiology, is designed to familiarize students with the major psychiatric clinical entities and relevant issues concerning diagnosis, based in part on the DSM-5 diagnostic criteria. In this course, we will cover the phenomenology of mental illness by way of contemporary psychiatric theory and practice and give students heavy exposure to the process of psychiatric assessment. The course will start by introducing students to how to build a disorder from symptom bricks as well as giving students an in-depth review of clinical psychiatric evaluations. This foundation will ultimately be used through the duration of the semester as we discuss many of the major categories of mental disorders in the following weeks.
