"I've already started bringing some of the ideas I've
learned in classes to the students I work with every day."
Sadie Klingenberg, Teacher of Students with Visual Impairments (TSVI, West Fargo
Public Schools)
Another unique feature is the highly collaborative relationships among
stakeholders who are invested in low incidence disability areas (deaf or hard of
hearing, deafblind, visual impairment) across the state of North Dakota. Through
partnership with Minot State University, The Deafblind Project, and UND our goal
is to raise awareness and provide supports/resources to our students and educators
who work with children and youth who have sensory disabilities.
In addition to Visual Impairment, UND offers eight other specializations
including Applied Behavior Analysis, Autism Spectrum Disorder, Early Childhood
Special Education, Emotional Behavior Disorders, General Special Education,
Intellectual Disabilities, Learning Disabilities, and Special Education Strategist.
