Welcome
Thanks for checking us out.
Our major in Human Development focuses on meeting the educational needs of people interested in:
- human and social services
- community activism and organizing
- social justice
- the ever-expanding connections between local and global realities
Our courses challenge students to think about what it means to “walk a mile” in someone else’s shoes, to learn how to communicate with people from many different backgrounds, to develop professional and organizational skills and to explore opportunities to put their knowledge into practice through service-learning experiences in the community.
Our faculty combine academic and professional strengths across the social sciences and services in fields such as education, counseling, criminology, health, history and social psychology.
