Overview

Trauma-responsive education and training is a major deficit and need right now, especially in the fields of education, social work, ministry, law enforcement, foster care, etc.Beginning with brain physiology, anatomy, and cognition, students begin by learning about optimal brain function and health. They are then introduced to the effects of trauma on the whole person, culminating in trauma-responsive practices and care.

Why Tabor?

Tabor College’s Master of Education in Neuroscience and Trauma is designed for anyone who works with children/youth who have suffered acute stress and/or trauma. M.Ed. Graduates include teachers, social workers, police officers, ministers, foster parents, adopting parents, therapists, and more.The program is the only fully online Neuroscience AND Trauma Program in the country. In addition to asynchronous courses, synchronous courses are provided to allow students interaction with peers and faculty on a weekly basis.Our students progress sequentially from neuroanatomy/physiology to behavior analysis and trauma-informed skillsets.M.Ed. students can produce a traditional master’s thesis or choose to work on alternative capstone experiences/projects that are tailored fit to their respective professions.Students become transformed because personal development is integrated through self-reflective assignments that apply knowledge to practice throughout the program.
