The Department of Family & Consumer Sciences announces a name change to the Department of Nutrition & Family Sciences, effective January 2021. While our department has grown and evolved over the years, content areas in the department remain focused on the science and art of living and working well in our complex world. Our courses are designed to enhance individual wellness and quality of life and to produce graduates who practice in an ethical and socially-responsible manner. We work to assist individuals, families, and communities to make informed decisions about their well-being, relationships, and resources to achieve an optimal quality of life. Changing the department’s name to Nutrition and Family Sciences more accurately reflects the makeup of the students in our department and lessens any confusion of names between the department and degree programs. We offer the following programs for undergraduate and graduate degrees:
- Bachelor of Science in Family & Consumer Sciences
- Bachelor of Science in Family & Consumer Sciences Education
