    About

    Equipping Educators

    In partnership with the Psychology Department in UNCW's College of Science and Engineering, we offer the Applied Behavior Analysis and Developmental/Intellectual Disabilities Minor to better prepare educators to serve individuals with special needs.

    The minor provides students with the opportunity to develop an understanding of the fundamentals of behavior analysis with an emphasis on how these principles are applied. For example, students will learn how principals of behavior analysis are applied in schools for individuals with intellectual disabilities such as autism.

    Courses are taught by faculty with expertise in psychology and special education

    Program provides students with applied learning experience

    Available to UNCW students in any field of study

    Students may begin taking courses freshman year
