About the course
The undergraduate program in Special Education prepares students to work with persons with disabilities and leads to teacher licensure. Students pursue an interdisciplinary major in exceptional learning with emphasis in one of three specialty areas: High Incidence Disabilities (K-8 and/or 6-12) or Multiple and Severe Disabilities. This major can be combined with other majors in Cognitive Studies, Child Studies, Child Development, Human and Organizational Development, or majors in Arts and Science. The program is field-oriented and problem-centered, with most professional courses requiring direct involvement with individuals with disabilities. Beginning first semester of freshman year, students observe and work in a variety of community and educational settings. Scholarships - View all scholarships Internships
