Solving human problems and enhancing human lives through innovative research, teaching, and outreach activities is and always has been the defining motto of the College of Human Environmental Sciences.  Our mission is to advance and apply knowledge of the interaction of people with their environments to develop effective professionals, engaged citizens, and visionary leaders who promote the physical, social, and economic well-being of people.
