The lowdown on upbeat



Life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Why is it that happiness has to be pursued, anyway? Why don't we just buzz with euphoria 24/7/365?

Well, a local university has established a doctoral program for studying the fleeting nature of happiness and well-being.


  • What does the PhD program hope to address?
  • Why might this field of interest be so under-explored, do you think?
  • What is a technique that the researchers plan to utilize, to explore the nature of happiness?
