As an MA student in the special education program, you'll be trained to find solutions to problems that help individuals with disabilities learn and grow. Many of our special education MA students go on to earn their PhD in special education.
Graduates with their MA in special education conduct research, teach in universities, and work in other educational settings in special education.
