The mission of the Family, Youth and Community Sciences Department is to enhance lifelong learning and the personal, social, economic, and environmental well-being of diverse individuals, families, and communities through state-of-the-art extension, research, and teaching programs. The Master of Science in FYCS can help you develop the specialized skills needed to pursue an advanced social science degree (e.g., PhD) or to move into a leadership role in fields such as human services, social welfare, family life education, nonprofit organizations, youth development, or other community-based initiatives. The curriculum examines methods for effectively creating and evaluating human services programs and explores interdisciplinary research and assessment techniques you can apply immediately to your organization.
Complete descriptions of the minimum requirements for each of our available degrees are provided within the Graduate Degrees section of this catalog. Contact the graduate coordinator for more information or visit http://fycs.ifas.ufl.edu/.
