• BU students specializing in the education of students with disabilities engage in a comprehensive course of study that includes a strong base in the liberal arts, with coursework in the humanities, social sciences, and math and science, as well as in general education and special education. Fieldwork in area schools with students with and without disabilities is threaded all throughout the students’ course study.
  • Preparation in the School of Education can lead to recommendation to the Commonwealth of Massachusetts for teaching licenses at the Initial Level as Teacher of Students with Moderate Disabilities and Teacher of Students with Severe Disabilities. Fulfillment of licensure requirements in the program can lead to licensure in states with which the Commonwealth of Massachusetts has reciprocity.
