Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) applies behavioral science principles to create positive changes in individuals' lives. Baylor University's Master of Science in Education (MSEd) in Educational Psychology with an ABA concentration focuses on teaching effective ABA interventions to develop new abilities and address challenging behaviors in people with disabilities. This program equips graduates to support diverse populations including those with autism, Down syndrome, and intellectual disabilities. The MSEd in Educational Psychology with ABA specialization trains students to implement research-backed strategies for children with developmental conditions like autism, blending academic coursework with practical training at Baylor CARE (part of the Baylor Center for Developmental Disabilities). The program also provides internship opportunities with regional ABA practitioners, allowing students to gain real-world experience while benefiting from reduced tuition costs.
