In keeping with the mission of Missouri Baptist University, the Social & Behavioral Sciences Division provides a curriculum that enables students to think critically and analytically, and in so doing, to think Christianly in the specific areas of the social and behavioral sciences. Students gain a broad understanding of both theory and research in the major and/or minor areas, including majors in Behavioral Science, Criminal Justice, History, Human Services, Psychology and Social Sciences. Minors are offered in the areas of History, Human Services, Political Science, Psychology, Social Sciences and Sociology. Students majoring in Human Services and Criminal Justice also develop entry-level skills for employment in these fields to prepare them for their post-collegiate career.
