FAMILY DEVELOPMENT HOME

Academics  

The interdisciplinary minor in family development increases understanding of the meaning and dynamics of marriage and parenthood in contemporary society. It examines the family as a major institution affecting society and surveys the individual, social, and economic problems found within families. This background contributes to preparation for careers in areas such as social work, psychology, education, communication, human ecology, and religious work.

Students minoring in family development must complete sixteen semester hours, including ASI 448, SOC 331 and twelve semester hours from approved courses. The total semester hours for the minor must come from three different academic disciplines.
