Why Special Education

Why should I choose Special Education at TAMU?

 

There are a lot of GREAT reasons to choose our program.

Here are just a few:

  • 100% pass rate on Texas Certification Exam for the past 3 years
  • Field based program: once you are admitted, field work is a large component in each semester. You are in the schools, working on your teaching skills. 
  • Active student organizations: for example, Student Council for Exceptional Children (SCEC).  Our students provide babysitting to families with special needs students; volunteer at professional conferences; do community service such as highway clean up
  • Top rated faculty who really care about your learning: Most have been teachers in the classroom too! (SABE Faculty)
  • Our graduates stay in teaching: retention rates of almost 90% after five years on the job
  • Study abroad program in Costa Rica: You can learn or improve your Spanish while taking Texas A & M courses AND work with educators and students in Costa Rica-the second oldest democracy in the world.
  • Research team opportunities: You can find opportunities to do research and assessment with super researchers.
