4 Years On Campus Bachelors Program
Tarleton State UniversityThe B.A.A.S. in Child Development and Family Studies offers a flexible program that allows students to utilize their workforce training and coursework toward obtaining their degree. Most courses taken for the A.A. in Child Development are transferable as well.
Students can obtain up to thirty-three hours of workforce credit toward their degree through three avenues: workforce-based college credit hours (such as CDEC courses) will transfer, each year of documented work experience at a licensed childcare facility counts toward workforce credit, and documented training hours can count towards workforce credit.
Our program is designed to provide students with a strong foundation of knowledge, leadership skills, and cultural competence to work with children and families. This is a fully online program with courses offered at minimum once per year to serve students across all campuses and distance learners
