- The course is interdisciplinary, exploring human behaviour across the lifespan and within the context of the intimate environment of the family.
- As an applied field, it is focused on theories regarding developmental stages, the effects of divorce, stress in the family, diversity, coping with ageing, human sexuality, etc., and how they can illuminate relationships and behaviour.
- The course is career orienting in nature that opens many jobs both in private and government sectors.
- This program is focused on the acquisition of basic knowledge of the dynamics of human development and family interaction, rather than clinical intervention.
- This knowledge is gained through in-depth examinations of theory and the basic and applied research of the field.

- Students may choose to specialize in one of two broad content domains, or they may choose to integrate both of them.
