专业概况

Autism is a complex developmental disability that typically appears in the first three years of life. The Centers for Disease Control estimate that as many as one out of every 110 children falls somewhere on the autism disorder spectrum. Helping these children and their families is the goal of the master’s degree program in special education with a concentration in autism.

The 30-credit Master of Science in Special Education prepares highly specialized educators to work with children and adults diagnosed on the autism spectrum. It also prepares educators to work in teams with psychologists, social workers and families to respond to the special needs of this unique population. The program leads to New York State certification in Special Education for Grades 1-6, and includes three courses towards certification by the Behavior Analyst Certification Board.

As a student in this program, you will study the assessment and instruction of students with severe disabilities, behavior management for children with autism and developmental disorders, communication development and language disorders in children with autism, and other subjects central to the education of individuals on the autism spectrum. Professors with extensive experience and expertise lead small classes, and the program places considerable emphasis on field study and practicum.

The M.S.Ed. in Special Education program is accredited by the Council for the Accreditation of Educator Preparation, signifying that the program of study meets the highest standards of quality in preparing competent, caring and qualified professional educators who will teach and lead in public and private schools.
