Special Education offers master’s and professional diploma programs which provide a comprehensive, integrated experience aimed at developing skills and competencies in educating the exceptional child, adolescent and adult. The special education programs are such that each student receives broad based experiences in all areas of special education. There are, at the same time, areas of focus, whereby a student establishes further expertise with one or more specific types of handicapping conditions.
