The Master of Education Degree in Special Education at Lamar University provides you an opportunity to apply knowledge through practical applications. This degree program aligns with standards developed by the Council for Exceptional Children (CEC) and the State Board for Educator Certification (SBEC): Texas Examinations of Educator Standards (TExES).
