The Department of Human Resources offers educational programs that share the common goal of preparing students to work with people in a variety of human services agencies and organizations. The human services field is one of the most rapidly expanding career fields in America today. The Human Resources Department focuses on those careers which require professional preparation and training for service to individuals, families, groups, and the community. Degree programs include Counseling, Criminal Justice, and Social Work. In addition to a general career field, the Counseling student may select a concentration in rehabilitation, aging services, or services to the deaf. The Criminal Justice student may choose to specialize in adult corrections, juvenile justice, or law enforcement. The Social Work program, through its Child Welfare Professional Enhancement Program, offers students opportunities for guaranteed employment in child welfare. The student, through their choice of a major and a minor, may create a degree plan which will meet entry-level employment requirements for a variety of human service careers and the specific requirements for his or her major career field.
