Bachelor of Science in Special Education (COMPREHENSIVE/INTERVENTIONIST)

The Comprehensive/Interventionist concentration in Special Education studies the best ways to educate and improve the lifestyles of children, youth and adults with a range of challenges (learning, cognitive, behavioral, emotional, physical) and unique gifts. Our curriculum is designed to provide a strong foundation of teaching skills, access to the latest in educational strategies, and instructional theory. Majors are further prepared with broad subject knowledge (reading, math, science, history, etc.) needed to teach all ages. Students pursuing this degree will earn teacher licensure for grades K-12 with a focus on instructional strategies and methods relevant for elementary, middle, and high school education. Students in licensure programs also engage in extensive clinical experiences in public schools for hands-on training, professional collaboration, and classroom management.
