    About

    Overview OutcomesStudents combining the Family Studies program of Albright College with another major are prepared for immediate employment in a variety of fields and professions including pre-K-12 education, social services, case management, client advocacy and residential care services. Graduates also pursue a number of advanced degrees. So set your sights high! Become a family lawyer, earn a Ph.D., or consider working in one of the nation’s fastest growing professions with a Master of Social Work degree.Why Family Studies?For better or for worse, we are all part of a family! Families are universally important social institutions both historically and contemporarily. Additionally, the majority of families around the world have certain things in common: relating people biologically and socially while organizing reproduction, care, and residence. It is also important to understand the impact on society when the family does not fulfill its role.Family studies is the study of family systems and their relationship to the development and social participation of their members, as well as the social institutions that both shape and sometimes replace family functions. This major focuses on understanding the family as a social group and the dynamics of family participation in American society as well as in a global context. Students are introduced to the theory of group formation, the external forces that impinge upon family functioning and the methods that can be used to measure and anticipate family dysfunctions.Family studies also pairs nicely with several other majors on campus, helping students to dig deeper and broaden their horizons. Co-majoring with psychology, political science and elementary education are popular choices. I want to find another Bachelor Course
