COLLEGE OF
HEALTH AND HUMAN
SERVICES

The mission of the College of Health and Human Services is to provide a high quality education and well-prepared graduates who demonstrate proficiency, critical thought, leadership ability, creativity, and commitment in current and future professional practice. Located in the Capital Region, the College prepares students for roles in society as productive citizens, fully committed to enriching the lives of others, promoting mutual respect for diverse populations, and lifelong learning.

To fulfill its mission, the College of Health and Human Services has established the following goals:

  • To promote the University's Mission "to preserve, communicate and develop knowledge and cultivate wisdom."
  • To encourage and support research and scholarship.
  • To promote interdisciplinary collaboration and cooperation.
  • To influence social and health care policies.
  • To promote and support academic and community leadership.
  • To encourage free thinkers engaged in creative problem solving.
  • To expose students to theoretical knowledge and laboratory, clinical and/or field experiences and community services.

The curricula offered by the seven academic units of the College consist of three building blocks: a classroom component that presents the theoretical basis for the discipline; a laboratory component that develops specific skills in the discipline; and a field component that allows students to apply classroom and laboratory knowledge to real-life situations. Appropriate educational technology is used to enhance the teaching-learning experience, and students have an opportunity to develop proficiency with computers and software applications used in their disciplines.

The strength of the College's faculty derives from their collective experience as teachers and practitioners in their fields. In addition to serving as educators and professional role-models for students, the faculty are involved in a variety of activities which demonstrate their commitment to scholarship, creativity, and community involvement.

In summary, the College of Health and Human Services is a thriving, dynamic component of California State University, Sacramento. It takes pride in the accomplishments of its students, alumni, faculty, and staff, and welcomes the opportunity to be involved in the surrounding community.
