Bachelor of Arts in Family and Human Services

Students in the family and human services (FHS) program are committed to helping individuals improve their quality of life. Reflecting the diversity of the community and social service sector, FHS is interdisciplinary, drawing on the fields of psychology and counseling, social work, prevention science, public health, human development, and sociology.
Alongside like-minded peers, youll analyze and create systems of community care for children and families. Youll learn how to help children and families develop effective ways to succeed in today's complex world, and youll gain an understanding of evidenced-based interventions, prevention, and agency policy and practices.
Through coursework and field experiences, FHS students build a foundation in individual, group, and community prevention and intervention, professional ethics, communication, and collaboration.
Students in the FHS program are admitted as a group (a cohort) and proceed through the major in a prescribed sequence. This means that the cohort takes the same coursework together at the same time.
The cohort is typically diverse on a number of dimensions including race, ethnicity, gender, national origin, age, religion, relationship status, disability, veteran status, and sexual orientation.
