Advisement
Upon acceptance into the minor, we recommend that students meet with an advisor from the Greenspun College of Urban Affairs Advising Center (895-1009). Students should meet with their advisor prior to each semester they are taking classes. The department has developed a schedule of when classes will be offered. Meeting with an advisor will ensure the student stays on track and can graduate in a timely manner.
The Family Studies minor provides students with basic theory in family studies and family therapy with particular attention to family systems theory, interpersonal dynamics, multi- cultural issues, human sexuality, and couples and family therapy.
