CHILD
DEVELOPMENT MINOR – 2005-07 Catalog
Psychology & Child Development Department
Faculty Office Bldg. (47), Room 24
805 756-2033
The minor is designed to give students in Liberal Studies and other majors a broad knowledge base in child development. Biological, cognitive, social, and emotional development are examined with opportunities to explore development in the contexts of family and culture. The minor builds upon students' critical thinking skills by stressing the research base of the current knowledge in the field. This minor complements one's training in majors such as Liberal Studies, Psychology, or Recreation Administration by its emphasis on approaching child development as a coherent whole and as a scientific area of study. An application form must be approved by a Child Development Minor advisor.
