Bachelor of Human Development and Family Sciences at Oregon State University

Learn to empower individuals, families and communities to survive and thrive. Explore how individuals develop and become resilient over time – particularly within the contexts of family, school, work and society. Consider how difficult environments, such as living in poverty, can make lives and relationships more challenging. Few careers offer as many opportunities to directly and profoundly impact lives. With an HDFS degree, you'll be ready for rewarding professional work or graduate study in fields such as education, HDFS, social work or public administration.
