专业概况

在这里学什么？

Students pursuing a combined degree in human services and sociology will integrate the theoretical understandings of these two fields to better understand organizational and group behavior and their implications for individuals and communities utilizing human services. The human services major prepares students for careers in social change by providing students with the theoretical and skill-based background necessary for practice and research. The sociology major prepares students to rigorously analyze the social, political, and economic spheres of society at the local and global levels. Students will develop a holistic understanding of preventative and reactive responses to social inequality and an understanding of how to impact change at the individual and structural levels. The combined major provides students with the conceptual and practical tools to understand how various features of society affect its members as well as how people create social change.

The human services major prepares students for careers in social change by providing the theoretical and skill-based background necessary for practice and research. Students will develop a holistic understanding of preventative and reactive responses to social inequality and an understanding of how to impact change at individual and structural levels. Students engage in an integrated educational program that emphasizes experiential approaches to learning through service-learning, co-op, and internship opportunities. Upon completion of the degree students apply professional skills in counseling roles, nonprofit management, political advocacy, or organizational and community development. All students declare a specialization within the major that reflects their particular focus in the field. Human services specializations include applied behavioral analysis, Deaf studies (BA only), family and children’s services, identity and social change, psychology/counseling psychology, and social justice and social policy. Additionally, students may have a specific area of interest not currently reflected in the offered specialization. In such cases, students are invited to submit a customized specialization for approval by the program director.
