Special Education

Part of the Department of Special Education, Rehabilitation and Counseling

Make a difference — one child at a time.  Enter or advance your career in special education. Our program prepares you to meet the growing demand of America’s children and youth with disabilities who receive special education services.

Graduates from initial certification programs are prepared to work with children and youth who have disabilities and implement evidence-based practices to meet students’ individual needs. Advanced programs are available at the master’s, education specialist, and doctoral levels.
