The curriculum, featuring courses such as Introduction to Social Work and Sociology of Children and Childhood, develops crucial skills in critical thinking and problem-solving. What sets us apart from other universities is the integration of learning with a faith-based environment, offering a unique perspective. With service and internship opportunities in Austin, you'll apply your knowledge in real-world scenarios, preparing for a meaningful career contributing to positive change.

The Behavioral Sciences major is adding a new track in Fall 2024 that will prepare students to become Child Life Professionals, individuals who work with children and families when a child is experiencing illness, injury, or treatment. These professionals work in hospitals, clinics, and a variety of other settings and work closely with doctors, nurses, and social workers. Through the Behavioral Sciences major, students will be able to complete the coursework which is required on the path to becoming a certified Child Life Professional.
