The College of Education provides four specialized majors under the Bachelor of Science in Education program. Students benefit from equity-focused curriculum designed by experienced faculty and professionals, preparing them to teach, lead, and administer in diverse educational and community settings. Those pursuing teacher preparation tracks within these majors can work toward certification for all grade levels. The All-Level (Early Childhood through 12th grade) Generic Special Education program equips you to educate students across all age groups with varying disabilities, culminating in a B.S. in Education degree.
As a Special Education student, you will:
Develop advocacy skills for students with Autism Spectrum Disorder, behavioral challenges, mild-to-moderate impairments, and severe/multiple disabilities.
Integrate social-emotional learning principles into your teaching approach.
Master techniques for building inclusive learning environments that celebrate individual student strengths.
All-Level Special Education majors complete 6 credit hours in human learning theory and child development, plus 12 foundation hours covering individual differences, cultural diversity, multilingual learning contexts, social issues, and instructional methods for students with disabilities ranging from mild to severe.

You will need to include 9th grade even if that work was completed at a different institution. You should also include copies of your official final examinations taken at the end of the secondary school program, including external exams such as the General Certificate of Education (GCE) O and A level examinations, school leaving certificates and matriculation exams. If you have earned any college credit (including dual credit) while in high school, submit official transcripts to UT Austin. Please provide official English translations together with the original language records.
High School Prerequisites - You must complete or be on track to complete certain high school coursework to be competitive for admission.
