About Our Program

The Master of Science in Early Intervention is an interdisciplinary program designed to prepare professionals to work with children, newborns to five-years-old, who have special needs.  The program maintains active teaching, research, and service links to the Institute for Disability Studies, which offers application sites, graduate assistantships, and other support services to the program. Academic preparation includes information on both typical and atypical early human development as a basis for assessing disabilities, as well as designing appropriate interventions and family supports. 

For more information, please consult the Graduate Bulletin. The graduate handbook can be accessed here.
