General studies will include instruction in psychology, social services, social services law and administration, human services policy, planning and evaluation, and applications.

The skills gained from a degree in human services are highly desirable, and jobs are available throughout the country.

Of course, no degree program can guarantee a future salary or position. However, accredited degrees and certificates are typically required or preferred by employers hiring in human services, and many specifically request that job candidates hold a PhD.
