As alumni, you have helped us build one of the top special education graduate programs in the country, and it is your collective effort across the nation and world that has enhanced the lives of people with disabilities and their families.

The Department is in the process of collecting reflections and professional advice from our alumni. The online survey requests an update on personal and professional information as well as recollections of memories and words of advice for our current students. Be sure to check out our survey page for more information and to help us build a more robust picture of our alumni's experiences.
