Research & academic support centers[]

In addition to the ten departments, the Family, Home, and Social Sciences oversees twelve research and academic support centers.

Center for Family History and Genealogy[]

Family History has a rich and long history at BYU. The Family History Program at Brigham Young University began in 1962. Various courses dedicated to genealogical research were offered, and students were able to choose either a two-year certificate or a family history minor. In addition, researchers were hired to conduct professional genealogical research for clients. The current Center for Family History and Genealogy was founded in 2000 as a place for students to engage in serious, academically rigorous genealogical/family historical research. Numerous faculty members and campus organizations participate in or supported family history on campus.[20]

Center for the Study of Elections and Democracy (CSED)[]

The Center for the Study of Elections and Democracy (CSED) at Brigham Young University was founded in 1998 as a nonpartisan academic research center seeking to increase knowledge about the practice of American democracy. CSED focuses on the production and dissemination of research that meets high academic standards, is useful to policy makers, and informs citizens. CSED-sponsored research has been published by leading academic journals and presses in the areas of campaign finance, voting technology and election reform, presidential and congressional elections, religion and politics, and democratic deliberation. CSED scholars frequently provide expert commentary on national and local politics in areas related to their research.[21]

Charles Redd Center for Western Studies[]

Utah ranchers Charles and Annaley Redd established the Lemuel Hardison Redd, Jr., Endowed Chair in Western American History in 1972 to promote and honor research, publication and teaching in Western American History.[22] The center offers seventeen different awards to BYU faculty, students, and unaffiliated researchers.[23] The Redd Center regularly sponsors public lectures to allow scholars to share research and invite the people to learn more about the Intermountain West. While the number of lectures presented each year varies, there are three annual named lectures: The Annaley Naegle Redd Lecture, held at the time of the Redd Center annual board meeting, the Howard and Hazel Butler Peters Lecture, and a lecture given by a recipient of a Clarence Dixon Taylor Award.[24]

Child and Family Studies Laboratory[]

The Child and Family Studies Laboratory was created to train BYU students in appropriate teaching techniques for young children to be used in the home, church, and professional settings by modeling a developmentally appropriate preschool program. It provides summer, STEM, preschool, and kindergarten programs as developmentally appropriate learning experience for preschool children and their parents. The laboratory also exists to aid in, facilitate, and conduct research with your children and families.[25]

Comprehensive Clinic[]

The BYU Comprehensive Clinic offers counseling services for individuals, couples, and families in the Utah County community. Since the Clinic is also a research and training facility, counseling is provided by graduate student interns under the close supervision of experienced faculty who are licensed therapists. In addition to therapy, the clinic offers various psychological assessments. The building also hosts the Communication Disorders Department from the McKay School of Education, as well as LDS Family Services. Both organizations provide a wide variety of groups and counseling services and adoption services.[26]

Family Studies Center[]

The Family Studies Center conducts research that identifies characteristics associated with strong marriages and families, the processes by which they develop, and positive individual and relationship outcomes of healthy family relationships. Historically, the Family Studies Center has supported funding for research on family relationships (e.g., the Flourishing Families Project), conferences on family topics (e.g., Families and Health; Work and Families), and outreach activities (e.g., “Families Under Fire” conference). The center also hosts workshops on research methods used with family data.[27]

Museum of Peoples and Cultures[]

The Museum of Peoples and Cultures cares for the anthropological, archaeological, and ethnographic collections in the custody of the university. The museum provides a professional learning environment for BYU students. It also facilitates teaching and research on peoples and cultures by BYU faculty, staff, students, and by members of the scholarly community in peer institutions. The museum is open to the public to educate visitors about peoples and cultures as appropriate to the Museum's holdings and collecting scope.[28]

New World Archaeological Foundation (NWAF)[]

The New World Archaeological Foundation is an archaeological research and teaching entity administered by the Department of Anthropology. The research focus is the study of the origins and subsequent trajectory of complex societies in the New World with special emphasis on Mesoamerica. Related to that study is the dissemination of findings through the NWAF Papers and other professional outlets. The NWAF also exists to enrich BYU student experience through mentoring/internship opportunities.[29]

Office of Public Archaeology (OPA)[]

OPA was officially organized in March 1981. OPA employs BYU Anthropology graduate students as crew chiefs and undergraduate students as crew members. External consultants are employed on an “as-needed” basis. OPA has carried out projects throughout Utah and in parts of Nevada, Wyoming, Colorado, and Arizona.

OPA has a diverse clientele, including Federal, State and local agencies, and private sector groups whose emphases include utilities construction, oil and gas exploration, mining, road construction, water projects, etc. Staff and employees have produced well over 800 technical reports and several professional articles and publications since 1981. These vary from reports on smaller projects carried out by individuals, to much larger excavations or survey projects involving large crews and extensive field and laboratory work.[30]

Civic Engagement[]

The mission of the Office of Civic Engagement is to provide students and faculty with appropriate skills and meaningful opportunities to engage in their respective communities. It contributes to undergraduate education by providing specific training in leadership and organizational skills as well as practical hands-on opportunities. It helps students acquire an understanding of the practical application of civic engagement and glean valuable lessons from participating and leading civic engagement projects.[31]

American Heritage[]

The American Heritage Center oversees a general education course by the same name that all students must take to graduate. BYU's Board of Trustees created the idea of American Heritage over 25 years ago because they believed that university students needed a better understanding of the origins of the Constitution and its role in American life. The course draws heavily from three different disciplines: political science, economics and history. The goal of the course is to teach students the religious, historical, political and economic origins of the Constitution, how the Constitution works, and to apply their knowledge of the Constitution to analyze major historical, political, and economic issues.[32]

FHSS Research Support Center[]

The Research Support Center assists and educates students and teachers in the College of Family Home and Social Sciences in implementing and improving research and statistical procedures. they offer face-to-face and over the phone consultation. They provide instruction in using statistical programs like SPSS and Stata to calculate summary information and perform simple statistical analysis.[33]
