Why Study Counseling and Special Education?
The study of Counseling and Special Education will help you to develop a knowledge and understanding of individual differences, life span issues and working with others. The programs offered emphasize working with clients and students as individuals within a group setting and serving them throughout the life span. All programs provide experiential applications for students throughout the program. If you are interested in a career in counseling or in working with persons who have exceptionalities or in improving your skills in these areas, you should discuss your plans with a member of the Counseling and Special Education faculty.
