MS in Applied Behavior Analysis

This program is for individuals who seek to create opportunities for meaningful changes in the lives of individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and their families. These changes also extend to perceptions and practices in the community. Faculty advisors will support you through the BCBA® certification and state licensure processes.

Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) involves applying the principles of behavior to improve socially significant behaviors. Applied behavior analysts work with individuals who range in age from infancy through adulthood and old age in settings that include schools, homes, day programs, communities, residential care settings, businesses, and research laboratories. Our master’s degree and advanced certificate programs will prepare you to develop, deliver, and evaluate the effectiveness of behavior analytic intervention for individuals with ASD.
