While part of our program, you'll be provided opportunities for field experiences in school and agency settings. You'll see individuals across the severity spectrum with mild to profound disabilities and from a wide age range of 5 to adulthood.?You don't go through these field experiences alone, either. They're supervised on-site by faculty members acting as a ?coach? and evaluator. Field experiences are part of your coursework, with a minimum of 400 hours needed prior to student teaching.
The field experience we offer prepares you for work with the full spectrum of learners with disabilities; this includes:
- Autism
- Traumatic Brain Injuries
- Intellectual Disabilities
- Behavior Disorders
- Specific Learning Disabilities.
