Bachelor of Arts [B.A] [Human Development] From California State University

In addition to completing required core coursework, each student completes a set of approximately six courses chosen from one of four concentrations: Health Services, Children?s Services, Adult and Gerontological Services, and Counseling Services. Courses within each of these concentrations have been selected to provide a solid educational foundation for students wishing to pursue careers in each of these arenas. Experiential learning is gained from field experience where students participate in community service learning activities related to their career and intellectual interests in human development. Students also conduct an applied research study on subject matter in human development of particular interest to them. These field activities are combined with classroom-based reflection exercises facilitated by Human Development faculty.
