College of Education, Health & Human Services (CEHHS)

Making Lives Better for Everyone

CEHHS offers a wide array of undergraduate, post-baccalaureate, and graduate programs designed to prepare students for rewarding and purposeful careers in education, nursing, public health, social work, speech pathology, human development, and kinesiology. We expect our graduates to be critical thinkers and creative problem solvers. We expect them to serve as agents of change in their workplaces and communities. We expect them to make a difference.

Being a Human Development student at CSUSM has given me countless opportunities to grow as a student, leader and community member. I am thankful for being able to be a part of Greek life, athletics, residential education and A.S.I. because I feel that all of these organizations have allowed me to get the most out of my collegiate experience. I am planning on going into nursing after my undergraduate work.
