Overview

About the program

The Applied Behavior Analysis and Clinical Science program of Rollins College follows a junior-colleague model to ensure high-quality mentoring of students. Upon entering the program, students work collaboratively with all faculty in every aspect of professional development, including: professional networking, practicum site selection, designing and conducting research, presenting and publishing research, and goal setting with regards to further graduate study or job placement. For the thesis/capstone process in the final year, students are matched with one primary adviser according to research interests.

Careers

Behavior analysts work with many populations. The majority of behavior analysts work with children with autism spectrum disorders, with individuals with other intellectual disabilities, and in education. Other areas of work include behavioral gerontology, organizational behavior management, and public policy and rehabilitation.

Currently, there is a healthy demand for professionals holding a master’s degree in applied behavior analysis. Burning Glass Technologies reported that the demand for behavior-analyst positions has more than doubled between 2012 and 2014. The Association for Professional Behavior Analysts (APBA) published a report in 2015 indicating 79% of BCBAs are working full time and 17% are working part time by choice. Only 3% of behavior analysts are working part time due to the inability to find work. This master’s degree provides graduates a wide range of career opportunities working in hospitals, educational settings, outpatient clinics, special education, the criminal-justice system, and in private practice with families, organizations, and corporations. The majority of behavior analysts work as direct providers of ABA services and in administrative roles related to ABA services.
