Department of Family & Community Health Sciences

The Department of Family and Community Health Sciences (FCHS) helps people stay healthy, enjoy life, be active, and reduce healthcare costs. Many of today’s health problems–obesity, heart disease, diabetes, and cancer—can be reduced through good nutrition and a healthy lifestyle. FCHS encourages today’s busy families and individuals to learn more and make personal choices to improve health. FCHS combines research and practical advice to improve your health for a better tomorrow.

This academic year we will have four faculty searches across the state. Three positions in Community Food Systems in Passiac, Essex, and Mercer counties and one position in Chronic Disease Management and Prevention in Somerset County. See these exciting opportunities below.
