Wright State's intervention specialist program offers a Bachelor of Science in Education degree with multi-age licensure for mild to moderate disabilities. Students can select two concentration areas from language arts, mathematics, social studies, or science. The program structure includes completing general education and content courses during the first two years, with the intervention specialist cohort beginning in the junior year.
This cohort program features three semesters of combined coursework and field experiences, followed by a student teaching semester. The curriculum incorporates multi-cultural and global perspectives within general education requirements. Specialized courses provide both theoretical and practical knowledge across humanities, mathematics, social sciences, and biological/physical sciences. The program specifically prepares students to work with individuals having high-incidence disabilities, including learning disabilities, ADHD, Autism, mild intellectual/physical disabilities, and emotional/behavioral disorders.
Upon program completion and passing Ohio's required exams, graduates qualify for an Ohio Resident Educator Intervention Specialist license in Mild/Moderate Needs (K-12).
