A graduate degree in the Prevention Science specialization will prepare you for a variety of careers, from applied work in human services to contributing to improving the human experience as a researcher or policy analyst. Many of our master?s students choose this specialization because of the research-based curriculum and often go on to complete a Ph.D. in Applied Developmental Science. All students in this specialization obtain in-depth coursework in: Lifespan development, Normative family functioning, Prevention science theory, Risk and resilience, Grant writing, Prevention program development, implementation, and evaluation and Research design and analysis. You can expect to complete the Prevention Science degree in two academic years as a full-time student. Your summer sessions often involve research or additional coursework. Take a moment to learn about the required courses you will take.
