Human Development and Family Science (B.S.)

Department of Human Development and Family Science

Human Development and Family Science is the scientific study of individuals and families that focuses on the development of humans through the entire lifespan, and across cross-cultural contexts. It involves social, physical, emotional, and behavioral development, as well as family dynamics and relationships in other social contexts, such as schools, workplaces and faith communities. Falk’s HDFS programs draw from psychology, sociology and education.
