About

This Special Education - Teacher Certification MEd program from Arizona State University is for those seeking Arizona teacher certification in special education. The special education program builds strong connections between theory and practice through quality classroom instruction paired with extensive clinical experiences.

Overview

Students gain a strong foundation in teaching and content knowledge from experts in the field of education. Mary Lou Fulton Teachers College faculty actively engage in the educational research community and embed this vital knowledge throughout the program. This connection further empowers students to engage in their own research through the culminating action research applied project.

A series of clinical experiences or field placements are designed to assist students in developing a thorough understanding of teaching and learning as they apply knowledge from their coursework in varied school settings. Individualized guidance through our clinical framework provides students with the support they need to be successful in today's rapidly evolving educational environment.

This Special Education - Teacher Certification MEd program from Arizona State University offers two routes for students to earn a master's degree and Arizona teacher certification:

Traditional certification route --- In this route, students can receive dual Arizona teacher certification in the following teaching certificates: Mild-Moderate Disabilities Special Education, K-12 and Elementary Education, grades 1-8. Students complete an internship each semester during the first two semesters --- one in a special education setting and one in an elementary education setting. In the final semester, students complete an 8-week teaching residency.

Alternative certification route --- This route provides an alternative pathway to Arizona teacher certification in Mild-Moderate Disabilities Special Education, K-12, for full-time teachers on an Alternative Teaching Certificate (or equivalent in other states). To qualify, individuals must secure a full-time teaching position in an approved content and grade level and pass the appropriate content exam. Candidates take classes one night per week and must be continuously enrolled in teaching coursework.

Career Opportunities
