The Department of Behavioral Science hosts over 2,500 students who engage with more than 100 full-time and adjunct faculty to learn about the complexities of human and animal behavior. As one of the largest departments on campus, the Behavioral Science Department offers students a broad range of educational opportunities. Students may seek success through certificate programs, undergraduate studies, and graduate programs, spanning across the fields of Anthropology, Family Science, Psychology, Social Work, and Sociology.
Behavioral Science instructors provide accessible, equitable, and culturally diverse learning experiences and resources for students of all backgrounds, including those historically underrepresented in higher education. We value diverse perspectives and seek to provide an atmosphere of respect, safety, and inclusion in our programs.
I like how the professors know that we're not coming to college to learn how to take a test. They actually want us to learn the material because they know that knowing the material is more important then being able to take a test once you're in the career field.
