Ohio State University’s BS in Human Development and Family Science explores how individuals grow and interact within families and communities across the lifespan. Students learn about child and adolescent development, aging, parenting, family dynamics, and policy impacts on well-being. The program blends psychology, sociology, and education, preparing students for careers in social work, counseling, education, or family policy—or for graduate study. Internships and fieldwork deepen students’ understanding of the challenges and strengths of diverse families.
