he College of Family and Consumer Sciences (FACS) is committed to student success and will become your home away from home as a student.

FACS offers majors, minors, and a certificate program to complement student academic and career aspirations. Our students aim to make a difference in the lives of individuals, families, and communities across the lifespan.

We develop strong leaders for careers in medicine and healthcare, law and policy, business and finance, counseling and therapy, culinary science, education, fashion, residential interior design, journalism, nursing, nutrition, youth development, and more. FACS programs are accredited, endorsed, or aligned with industry best practices. We also offer several Double Dawg pathways in each of our departments where students can earn a bachelor’s and master’s degree in five years.

FACS students are encouraged to align their academic program with their career goals through experiential learning opportunities such as internships, faculty-student research, service learning, study away, and student organizations. The FACS Legislative Aide program allows students to spend a semester working with Georgia legislators for course credit. FACS 2000, a class for all FACS students, supports incoming students during their transition to a new learning environment. Couture a la Cart, a mobile retail store, is managed and operated by FACS students. Our collaboration with the UGA Career Center connects all FACS students to career exploration and development opportunities.

FACS annually awards scholarships to undergraduate students for academic, research, and study away opportunities.
