在这里学什么？

The Bachelor of Science in Human Environmental Sciences, Human Development & Family Studies with a concentration in Child Life offered online prepares you to become an expert in the growth and development of both healthy and hospitalized children.

As a Child Life Specialist, you’ll act as an interdisciplinary member of the healthcare team— promoting optimum development of infants, children, adolescents and families; maintaining normal living patterns and minimizing psychological upset stemming from illness, disability, or hospitalization. Child Life Specialists also promote effective coping through play, preparation, education and self-expression activities.

You can take classes from wherever you are and complete coursework at the time that best fits your schedule. Upon graduation, qualifying students may sit for the Child Life Professional Certification Examination.

The University of Alabama is leading the way in Child Life education. As one of the few universities in the country with PhD faculty in the area of Child Life, UA is able to offer students the highest quality experience with the leaders who are shaping the healthcare industry. These same professors are excited to extend that same quality to online students by being one of the first universities in the country to offer a degree with a concentration in Child Life completely online.

The program requires 120 hours and consists of a comprehensive foundation of courses related to the growth and development of the healthy child as well as the hospitalized child. Students participate in many laboratory and practicum experiences with children. These experiences, along with theoretical information, provide a foundation necessary for working with hospitalized children and their families. This curriculum leads to child life certification by allowing qualified students to sit for the Child Life Professional Certification Examination upon graduation.
