California Baptist University’s School of Behavioral Sciences developed the behavioral science major to equip and empower students to make a difference in the lives of individuals and their families, churches and communities.
CBU behavioral science students pursue a historical and contemporary knowledge of the behavioral sciences and acquire the skills necessary for the direct application of that knowledge in both secular and religious contexts. In addition, a prime goal of the School of Behavioral Sciences is the development of the appropriate relationship between the behavioral sciences and biblical truth. Behavioral science students enjoy the instruction and guidance of expert Christian professors who themselves have years of practical experience in their fields of study.
Students are encouraged to pursue a complimentary minor.
