The Bachelor of Arts degree in Child and Adolescent Development (CAD) is for students who are interested in studying and working with children, adolescents, and their families. The major provides students with knowledge and theories about children and adolescents from a developmental perspective. Students then learn to apply this knowledge to programs, services, and policies for children, youth, and families that are offered in community settings and classrooms. The School Age Child and Family concentration was developed for students who wish to work primarily with school-age children and their families in settings such as elementary schools, social service agencies, and after-school programs. This concentration is recommended as preparation for students who wish to become elementary school teachers and plan to enroll in a Multiple Subjects Teaching Credential Program after graduation.
