In the College of Human Sciences , we are driven by a passion to help people. We study every aspect of their daily lives including how they learn, how they eat, how they exercise, how they spend money, how they vacation, how they train for sports, and even how they dress. From this deep understanding of people, we strive to improve the overall quality of people’s lives so that they can learn more, live longer, lead more fulfilling lives, and thrive. Our ultimate goal is to help people expand their potential.
