","graduation_notes":"","status":"Active","PROGRAM_SUMMARY":"

The Human Services Bachelor of Science (BS) degree offers a distinctive opportunity for interdisciplinary study drawing students from the lower division human services programs and students pursuing an A.A. degree with a psychology, social work or sociology sub plan. The degree appeals to students who may be working in the field in entry-level positions and can directly apply the concepts they learn in the classroom. Students can utilize their education immediately upon graduation as this degree does not require a commitment to graduate school. The BS, however, will prepare students to pursue graduate work in disciplines such as human services, counseling, psychology, addiction studies, health sciences, applied behavior analysis, rehabilitative & mental health counseling, social work, business, etc. An additional distinctive feature of the BS degree will include service learning as a critical component.

Our Human Services Advisory Committee offered unanimous support to the Social Sciences & Human Service Department for moving forward with developing a BS proposal. In fall 2018, the institutional process began for securing administration approval of applying for Bachelor of Science Degree in Human Services. The Senior Vice President reviewed and approved applying for the degree and presented the request to the President’s Cabinet, under the leadership of Dr. Tonjua Williams. The Cabinet approved moving the application forward to the Provost-Deans Council. In August 2019, the Provost-Deans Council unanimously approved moving forward with the development of the degree proposal.","PROGRAM_SUMMARY":"

","PROGRAM_TEACHOUT":"","PROGRAM_WAGE_ANALYSIS":"The Human Services BS program fits the SPC vision of transforming the lives of both students and communities by promoting student success and enriching our communities through education, career development, and self-discovery. The goal of human services is to make a difference in the lives of those unable to help themselves as the program focuses on the needs of the under-served and underrepresented. The field of Human Services is broadly defined, uniquely approaching the objective of meeting human needs through an interdisciplinary knowledge base, focusing on prevention as well as remediation of problems, and maintaining a commitment to improving the overall quality of life of service populations. The Human Services profession is one which promotes improved service delivery systems by addressing not only the quality of direct services, but also by seeking to improve accessibility, accountability, and coordination among professionals and agencies in service delivery (http://www.nationalhumanservices.org/about-us).","PROPOSAL_TYPE":"Program Administrative Modification","RELATED_WEBSITES":null,"SOC_CODE":"21-0000\n11-9151\t \n21-1093","SOC_WEB_LINK":"https://www.onetcodeconnector.org/find/family/code?s=21#21","SPC_APPLICATION":"Yes","SPC_CREDITS":"120.00","STATE_CREDITS":"120.00","STATUS":"Active","STUDENTS_ADMITTED":"Fall, Spring, Summer","SUBMISSION_REASON":"New State Requirements","TRANSCRIPT_DESCRIPTION":"Bachelor of Science in Human Services","TUITION_FISCAL_YEAR":null,"TUITION_SOURCE":null,"TYPICAL_COSTS":null,"UPPER_DIVISION":"Upper Division","WHERE_ADMINISTERED":null}]}
