Human Development

Is Human Development for Me?

  • Would you enjoy working with families, youth, adolescents, adults and/or aging members of your community?
  • Are you curious about how human beings grow and develop?
  • Have you ever wondered how environmental and social factors affect physical, cognitive, and emotional development?
  • Do you have a desire to understand the relationships between individuals, families, communities, and broader cultural contexts?
  • Do you want to help people improve their lives and relationships?

If you answered “Yes” to any of these questions, then a
Human Development major may be right for you!
