Elementary Education/Special Education 
(to be completed by Fall 2013)
With careful planning, students can complete programs leading to certification in both special education and elementary education in 10 semesters, thereby becoming eligible to teach in both regular and special classrooms. The dual certification also will help students meet the challenges of inclusion. Students interested in the program should contact the chair of the department of Special Education and Rehabilitative Sciences or Education for more information.
