Bachelor of Science [B.S] [Behavior Analysis] From Savannah State University

Behavior analysis is the scientific study of the relationship between the environment and the behavior of humans and other animals. The principles of behavior analysis extend to all species and are in effect in all environments. These principles can be applied by behavior analysts with a variety of populations such as children or adults and people with or without disabilities. Behavior analysts help these populations address a variety of social issues, including academic behavior, addressing inappropriate behaviors (in a variety of settings), health behavior, organizational and business issues, psychopharmacology, zoos, etc. Students in other disciplines (e.g., social work, criminal justice, sociology, biology, and education) may find that understanding the science of behavior analysis can help them when they are working with their clients.
