Special Education, B.S.


The major in special education provides the student with a general education curriculum solidly grounded in the liberal arts and provides professional preparation leading to certification for grades K-12 in mild-moderate disabilities (cross-categorical), and an add-on elementary education certification (grades 1-6).

General Education Requirements


General education requirements are presented in the undergraduate academic information  section in this catalog. A course that meets a general education requirement may also meet a course requirement in the major or a course requirement in another discipline.
