About Bachelor of Behavioural Science (Honours) (BH411)
Humber’s Bachelor of Behavioural Science degree program provides students with the knowledge, skills and abilities required for in-depth work in the behavioural science field with individuals throughout the lifespan. The program is firmly grounded in the theory, principles and practices of behavioural science (applied behaviour analysis and cognitive behavioural approaches) and psychology. Applied behavioural analysis uses behavioural rules in everyday situations to help people change their behaviour to improve quality of life. The program focuses on data obtained through observation as it investigates behaviour, cognitive events and the influence of environmental factors on behaviour.
Courses in the first two years of the program provide a strong foundation in behaviour analytic approaches, psychology, research and ethics, while highlighting specific special populations. This is followed in the final two years with further in-depth study of ethics and professionalism, individual and group counselling, issues in behavioural psychology, further special populations, and two courses of senior thesis work. Overall, the program emphasizes critical thinking, analytical skills, interprofessional practice and leadership.
Students will engage in a 420-hour Professional Practicum experience as part of the program. They will complete 420 hours of field placement across two semesters (210 hours in each 14-week semester) or 420 hours in the summer semester before the final year of study with one of Humber’s established community partners. Opportunities are arranged with the help of a dedicated field advisor and are typically unpaid.
