College of Human Sciences
With a name like that you would assume it would include anthropology, sociology, women's studies, poli sci, African American studies, American Indian studies, etc.
But it doesnt. Damn we got some stoopid faculty working on this name change. |
What DOES it focus on? :)

Human Sciences as a field of study was established inthe late 19th century. Its purpose was to address human needs by applyingscientific principles to solve the practical problems of everydaylife. What makes the College of Human Sciences at Auburn University(CHS@AU) unique today comes out of that same tradition of putting "people first" and integrating science-based skills with human-based values. Indeed, it is pursuing Science for a Quality Life. When you think about it, the majors do have things in common. |
We've got:
Textile Design and Marketing Human Development and Family Studies Nutrition Interior Architecture Social Work All of these fall under the School of Human Environmental Sciences. |
It's the proposed name (which just passed by one vote, apparently) of the new college at Iowa State which will combine the college of Family and Consumer Sciences and the college of Education in order to cut spending.
Some majors are: Early Childhood Education Elementary Education Secondary Education Health and Human Performance Apparel and Merchandising Home Economics Hotel and Restaurant Management Textiles and Clothing Human Development and Family Studies Personally, I think they're losing more academically than gaining financially by combining the two colleges, but that's already been decided. |

Don't ask me why but when I saw the heading for this thread, it reminded me of those ads on the subway for non-acredited schools offering social work-related courses that people try to pass off as having a real Master's degree from but it is so not.

It seems really random to me to put Interior Design/Architecture in the College of Human Sciences if there's a school of Architecture. :confused: |

Plus, strictly speaking, comp sci and computer systems engineering are different fields of study, and while they share resources, combining them would be like combining chemistry and chemical engineering, in a sense. |
