The
Department of Family and Consumer Sciences traces its roots
to the founding of Bradley University, when Nellie Kedzie
designed a home economics curriculum that blended theoretical
teaching with hands-on learning.
Today, that educational philosophy still underpins the department,
which was renamed to focus on the family as a consuming
unit while preparing graduates to meet new and emerging
challenges in the field.
Career opportunities
continue to expand in this field, and Bradley’s FCS department
has a 100-percent
job-placement rate. You’ll choose from careers
in teaching, family-and-consumer-sciences-related business,
social services, nutrition and dietetics, fashion design,
interior design, and others.
