Family and Consumer Sciences
The Family and Consumer Sciences Department empowers individuals and families across their life spans to manage the challenges of living and working in a diverse, global society.
The department’s unique focus is on the family, work, and their interrelationships. The goal of Family and Consumer Sciences is to prepare students to become life-long learners.

- strengthening the well-being of individuals and families;
- becoming responsible citizens and leaders in diverse settings;
- promoting optimal nutrition and wellness;
- managing resources;
- balancing personal, home, family, and work lives;
- functioning as providers and consumers of goods and services;
- appreciating human worth and accepting responsibility for one’s actions (individually or collaboratively); and
- finding success in both family and work.
