The Department of Special Education is committed to preparing qualified graduates to serve K-12 students with varying needs in the least restrictive environment and to ensure their access to the general education curriculum. We value diverse and evidence-based pedagogical, instructional, and curricular approaches as well as research methodologies designed to produce positive learning outcomes for all students.
We believe educational decision making is the responsibility of a collaborative team that welcomes the input of all relevant stakeholders, including the student. Our educational systems must minimize the separation between general and special education and the over-identification and shunting of students into special-ed programs.
There are three program tracks that UW students may choose, depending on their preferences. Track 1 is for full-time students who can take 12 credits per semester. Track II is for part-time students. Track III is for students that chose to take only one course per semester.
