Prepare to work in the special education field or teach K-12 students with a broad range of special needs. You'll work closely with award-winning professors who are leaders in the field of special education, in a nationally-recognized program that prepares more educators than any other university in Colorado. Teacher candidates will also gain real-world classroom experience through extensive field-based learning opportunities, including simulated, faculty-guided classroom experiences earlier in the program, to full-time teaching opportunities in your final semester. Field experiences are directly tied to your course work, connecting classroom and real-world learning. Graduates receive a Bachelor of Arts degree in Special Education and K-12 teacher emphasis students also receive Colorado licensure as a K-12 Generalist. UNC graduates enjoy a nearly 100 percent placement rate with school districts and other employers. As a student in the Special Education program, you may also be eligible for federal loan forgiveness programs. The Liberal Arts emphasis provides a strong background in special education theory and practice, as well as teacher preparation, but does not include student teaching field experiences in the final semester or K-12 teaching licensure upon graduation.
