Special Education Masters Program
The Master's programs in special education at Texas A&M University prepare educator practitioners to serve as skillful, knowledgeable, and caring professionals. We take a broad, non-categorical view of disability, and include in our training the knowledge and skills for effetively meeting the needs of students classified as having disabilities as well as those identified as "low-performing" and "at-risk". Our faculty supports the integration of individuals with disabilities with their non-disabled peers into appropriate settings with well-trained professionals. We encourage our master's level students to have an understanding of and respect for the ethnic and cultural diversity of the students, families, and communitites in which they may work. We share a commitment to teach empirically supported best practice procedures in the identification of student assessment, instructional programming, and progress evaluation. We believe that graduates from our program will encounter increasing changes and challenges in the field of special education. As a result, we facilitate problem solving, collaboration, and communication skills as part of the professional development of our master's students.
