Bachelor of Arts in Human Ecology

Students may pursue either a Bachelor of Arts (BA) or Bachelor of Science and Arts (BSA) in Human Ecology. These are broad-based degrees with greater opportunity to explore universal topics in all three human ecology disciplines -- Human Development and Family Sciences, Nutritional Sciences, and Textiles and Apparel. The flexibility of the BA and BSA allows students to sample a variety of fields or to design unique combinations of courses. We believe in nurturing curiosity, in pursuing big questions and in solving global challenges. With 15 majors and dozens of programs of study, the College of Natural Sciences at The University of Texas at Austin offers the chance to forge a bold educational path, unique to you.
