The Human Services and Community Justice, Bachelor of Science degree, is designed to train students in the theory and practice of human services. Students in this major will progress through required core courses designed to prepare them to become self-reflective, competent, and compassionate practitioners, change agents, advocates, and community leaders. Subsequently, through multidisciplinary, methods, and elective courses, students will continue to develop a rich appreciation for diverse human systems and interventions, justice and advocacy, and policy and administration promoting a “just” society.

Upon graduation from the program, students will find that they are well prepared to enter advanced degree programs specializing in direct human services such as counseling, community psychology, social work, and public health. They will also have a strong foundation in advocacy work such as community labor, human and political rights, policy analysis, urban affairs, and public administration.
