Overview

Key Features

Graduates of the B.S. in Human Services at Montana State University Billings program have found employment in state agencies, community based rehabilitation and mental health centers, rehabilitation facilities, and public social service organizations.

The program is one of the few that broadly focuses on the field of human services in Montana, which is closely related to the field of social work. However, students focus more specifically on concentrations that include serving populations in mental health, disability, and family systems.

Although this degree is meant to prepare most graduates for employment primarily as professionals capable of casework with a diverse population, in an effort to expand employment opportunities for graduates, a concentration in Substance Abuse Counseling was recently added. The addiction counseling emphasis adds addiction assessment and treatment classes to increase the student's knowledge of addiction and their eventual employability in the community.

Upon successful completion of this program, students will be able to:

Assess and evaluate community resources related to human service delivery
Apply ethical principles into the professional settings
Integrate general counseling theory and techniques into practice
