The interdisciplinary minor in Child and Family Studies is designed to increase understanding of human development, the interrelationships among family members, and the reciprocal influence of the family and society at large. Knowledge about families and working with families has emerged as a critical area of concern for health, social service and education professionals. Students can tailor the curriculum to reflect their interests and career goals, thereby adding value to their majors and increasing career and graduate study options.
