Human Development is an interdisciplinary
program that integrates theory and methodology from disciplines such as anthropology, biology,
linguistics, psychology, and sociology. Students majoring in Human Development explore the processes
and mechanisms underlying developmental change and stability across the lifespan, and the
sociocultural and historical contexts in which development takes place.
The program's curriculum
equips students with basic understanding of major research findings
and core concepts in human development, the ability to critically analyze
and evaluate theoretical and practical issues in the field, and the
skills to apply their learning to diverse communities outside the university.
The program strives to create an optimal learning community which values
and fosters mutual learning and dialogue between and among students
and faculty from diverse backgrounds.
