The special education program in the Department of Teaching and Learning at SIUE is a nationally recognized program delivered through a collaborative partnership agreement between SIUE and public school districts. Classroom teachers and university professors work together to provide special education candidates a unique opportunity to regularly interact with children with disabilities from pre-K to age 21. In the School of Education, Health and Human Behavior, we combine classroom instruction and ample opportunities for practical experiences in a variety of settings.
In conjunction with the early childhood program, the special education program also provides courses required for early childhood special education approval. The special education program offers Council for the Accreditation of Educator Preparation-approved programs at the undergraduate level for teaching licensure as a learning behavior specialist (LBS I).
What can I do with a degree in Special Education?
Graduates of the undergraduate special education program have a wide range of options for employment. Not only are our graduates licensed in ages pre-K through age 21, but also in a wide range of disabilities. There is a growing need for special educators nationwide, and that growth is anticipated to continue in the years to come. Special education teachers are currently considered a teacher shortage area in Illinois.
