Department of Psychological and Behavioral Health Sciences

The Department of Psychological and Behavioral Health Sciences (PBHS) educates students for careers that promote the mental, physical and psychosocial health and well-being of individuals, families and communities.

Due to changing lifestyle and environmental factors that result in increased prevalence of disease and disability, there is a growing need to discover, develop, and disseminate evidence-based prevention, treatment and rehabilitation programs for physical and mental impairments. Through research, teaching, and service, the faculty of PBHS is dedicated to meeting this growing societal need.
