Bachelor of Science in Applied Behavior Analysis

Program Overview

Behavior principles underlie learning in a large number of diverse areas. This degree teaches you how to describe and measure learning, how to study the diverse ways people and animals learn, and how to support learning and behavior change to improve the quality of individual's lives. Applied Behavior Analysts work with individuals with autism, with development delays or with other behavioral difficulties and in a variety of contexts such as clinics, hospitals and treatment centers. Behavior Analysts who study animal behavior also work in zoos and aquaria toward the enrichment and betterment of animal lives.

Why Earn an Applied Behavior Analysis Degree?

Behavior Analysis is a natural science that studies the effects of the environment on the behavior of individuals. Its principles are universal. They can be applied with any population, including children with autism, people with developmental disabilities, parents and children, pet owners, college students, healthcare providers, athletes, employees and CEOs.

Our curriculum teaches you how behavior is affected by events in the social and physical environment, how to change behavior and how to improve lives. We combine theoretical and practical learning to provide an in-depth knowledge base and marketable skills.
