HUMAN SERVICES MINOR (Department of<br />
Counseling)<br />
Total: 18<br />
Description. The field of Human Service is broadly defined, uniquely<br />
approaching the objective of meeting human needs through an<br />
interdisciplinary knowledge base, focusing on prevention as well as<br />
remediation of problems, and maintaining a commitment to<br />
improving overall quality of life of service populations. Combining<br />
social work, counseling, psychology, sociology, and education, the<br />
field requires professionals to perform a variety of helping roles<br />
within the social service arena while maintaining a respect for<br />
diversity and knowledge of multicultural perspectives.<br />
The Human Service minor represents a concentrated program of<br />
study, with courses designed to develop an understanding of the basic<br />
tenets of the Human Service profession. They are intended to help<br />
students develop a better understanding of the challenges facing<br />
diverse and underserved populations in society whom traditionally<br />
seek services from public, non-profit, and private Human Service<br />
agencies.<br />
Rationale. The courses are designed to help students acquire basic<br />
competencies, such as communication and professional helping<br />
skills, knowledge of counseling and Human Service theory, and a<br />
general awareness of the impact of race, ethnicity, gender, family,<br />
spirituality, government, education, and social systems on human<br />
growth and development in our society. Students will learn to assist<br />
others in a number of Human Service capacities including, problem<br />
resolution and prevention, advocacy, community resource<br />
management, and individual and community intervention. Students<br />
will develop an understanding of the history, philosophy, and<br />
methodology of the Human Service profession in our society.<br />
