Human Services Program

Serve your community one person at a time.

The Human Services Program prepares students to work with children, adolescents, or adults in a variety of human services settings. Human Services majors concentrate on gaining a foundation in the liberal arts, human growth and development, the human services delivery system, and the social policies that shape service delivery and provide for social needs.

Students take a core set of courses that develop the skills for working in human services agencies and settings. A strong component of psychology and sociology courses imbedded in the major provides students with an understanding of human behavior and the social context of the lives of individuals served. An education that ranges from human development to systemic interaction prepares students to work in criminal justice, social service, health care, or public policy.

Students who demonstrate a high level of maturity and academic potential are eligible to apply for the Dual Degree Programs: BA/MA in Counseling Psychology and BS/MA in Clinical Mental Health Counseling.
