Nurture Potential with a Special Education Bachelor’s Degree
Develop the knowledge and skills to make a lasting impact as a licensed teacher with Cornerstone University’s B.A. in Special Education, accredited by the Council for the Accreditation of Educator Preparation (CAEP). With a learning disabilities emphasis, you’ll prepare to teach special education in K-12 settings while also earning certification to teach general education in grades PK-6 or 7-12. Through hands-on classroom and field experience, expert faculty mentorship, and a Christ-centered approach, you’ll be equipped to help every student develop their potential.
Teacher Education Field Experience
Special Education majors will build on their coursework by developing formal and informal assessment skills. You will learn to diagnose student needs, plan and teach targeted instruction, and use formative assessment to evaluate and adjust your teaching. This process is applied in a school-based apprenticeship, where you will complete at least 420 hours in a special education classroom under the guidance of a professional educator.
