Program Details
Would you like to help children from military families deal with the challenges that come with military life? In this specialization, you will gain insights into military culture as well as the unique emotional needs of children of active military personnel and veterans. Develop the skills needed to help children and their families cope with long-term separation, combat-related injuries, post-traumatic stress disorder, and a variety of other hardships inherent in military life. The optional accelerated track is designed for students who are interested in taking three courses per quarter and potentially finishing their program in a shorter time frame. The accelerated track has the same curriculum, residencies, and field experience requirements as the general track, but requires a strong time commitment and is best suited for students who can dedicate themselves full time to their studies.
