Master of Science in Human Development and Family Studies is typically a 2-year program that explores the complexities of human growth, relationships, and family dynamics across the lifespan. This interdisciplinary degree combines psychology, sociology, and education, focusing on research methods, theories of human development, family systems, and social policies. Students engage in coursework, and research projects, and often complete internships or fieldwork. The program prepares graduates for careers in social services, education, counseling, or research, and can serve as a foundation for doctoral studies. Specializations may include child development, gerontology, or family therapy.
