"description": "<p><strong>Become a Champion for K-12 Students with Disabilities</strong></p>\r\n<p><span>UCF’s Master of Arts in Exceptional Student Education (ESE) is designed to equip you to unlock the potential of every learner — including K-12 students with disabilities. If you hold a bachelor’s degree in another field, this program offers a direct path to the classroom. Through this state-approved initial teacher preparation program, you’ll work toward earning your professional educator certification, along with English for Speakers of Other Languages (ESOL) and Reading endorsements. </span><strong><span></span></strong></p>\r\n<p><span>Build a strong foundation in education through coursework that helps you manage classrooms effectively, assess and support student progress, implement evidence-based instructional strategies, and design individualized programming and behavior management plans. </span></p>\r\n<p><span>As a graduate student, you’ll complete both a reading practicum and an internship, gaining hands-on experience in ESE settings under the supervision and direction of certified ESE teachers. Alternatively, you can apply for an on-the-job internship if you already are teaching in an approved setting.</span></p>\r\n<p><span>You’ll learn from experienced faculty who are leaders in special education, engage in real-world learning experiences, and collaborate with peers who share your dedication to making a lasting impact on children’s lives. Graduates of the program are prepared for roles in K-12 schools, nonprofit organizations and more.</span></p>\r\n<p><span>This program primes students for state-regulated professional licensure or certification.
