⭐ Early Childhood Education

This major focuses on teaching child development from infancy through age 8, along with early childhood education licensure and director qualifications. It’s unique in that students start out in another major their freshman and sophomore years, complete some prerequisites and then apply for a spot in this major for their junior and senior years. Many enter the program from the Human Development and Family Studies major, and can expect a cohort-like setting of 25-30 students, offering ample face time with faculty and hands-on experience in the field.

⭐ Family & Consumer Sciences

This major prepares professionals to enhance the well-being of people and the communities they live in. Because the program is interdepartmental and interdisciplinary, you’ll take a broad range of courses to provide you with the breadth of content you’ll use in your future career. Through coursework and field experience, you’ll gain skills in observation, needs assessment, program development and implementation, and social policy information as these relate to diverse populations.
