Early Childhood Special Education

Is It for You?

Ask yourself these questions: 

• Are you looking for an innovative, interdisciplinary program -- the only one in the Chicago area that blends the disciplines of early childhood education and special education?
  
• Do you want to support children with special needs – as well as their families?
  
• Do you want to participate in field experiences right away? 
  
• Do you wish to work with young children with disabilities at a critical time in their lives, when effective intervention can have a substantial positive impact?
  
• Do you want to specialize in early intervention (birth to age three) or early childhood special education (age three through five)?
  
• Are you aiming to earn your master’s degree in about two years?

If you answered “yes” to most of these questions, then you owe it to yourself to learn more about our M. Ed. in early childhood special education.
