Enhancing Human Potential
It's an exciting time for the College of Education and Human Sciences and for everyone involved with it!

Along with our college's several departments, we also operate within the West River Graduate Center.

Faculty and staff in EHS work to expand knowledge with outreach programs through SDSU Extension and by conducting research in fields such as financial security, mental well-being, human nutrition, physical activity and obesity prevention and transformative learning. We work to offer sustainable solutions to issues such as health promotion, disease prevention and education reform from a transdisciplinary stance.
In EHS we focus on enhancing human potential by centering on the improvement of human life and community through the promotion of mental, physical and financial health.
