HANDS ON TRAINING

The Behavior Analysis and Therapy Program provides students with much more than classroom training.  Students take part in a variety of hands-on training opportunities that strengthen their knowledge about behavior analysis.  Best of all, these experiences allow students to develop their capacities to implement the principles of behavior in real-world settings so that they will be prepared for the workforce or doctoral programs upon graduation.

Each faculty member offers students a number of practical training opportunities throughout their enrollment in the Masters program.
