About the course

The concentration in Autism and Developmental Disabilities (A&DD) provides advanced training in the design, implementation, and evaluation of evidence-based practices to individuals with autism and related developmental and physical disabilities, and their families. This program can be completed by one of two options (M.Ed. or M.A.), involving flexible combinations of coursework, practicum, and applied intervention research. With both options, the program of study uniquely integrates theory, research, and practice. This program also meets all the coursework requirements for the Behavior Analysis Certification Board (BACB) under the 5th Task List, thus, students who complete the program of study will be eligible to become Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBA). Graduates are prepared to assume educational and related professional positions as teachers, behavior analysts, and clinicians, serving all ages, culturally and linguistically diverse populations, and incorporating assistive technology.
