	+ Eastern Michigan U: New Master's Program in Autism
	Posted by lightfoot on Wednesday, January 30, 2008 (10:19:35) Posted by Adrienne Edwards Eastern Michigan University (www.emich.edu) is starting a new masterÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s degree program to train special education teachers to meet the needs of the growing number of children with autism. Approved by the EMU Board of Regents in January, 2008, the first 20 graduates will enroll in the master of arts degree program in autism spectrum disorders in the 2008-09 academic year. Within three years, enrollment is planned to grow to 60 students. EMU officials say the new masterÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s degree fills a pressing need. The number of children diagnosed with autism disorders has increased, and the state of Michigan lacks enough special education personnel who are prepared to teach them. source: mlive.com on 1/27/08
