Describe your overall experience in our Special Education program.
I just finished my master’s in December. My experience with the program overall was just amazing. The professors were SO GOOD and Dr. Howard and Dr. Murray supported me the entire way. I could call them whenever, even though I was studying online, and that was key for me. I didn’t feel like just another student, I felt like I mattered. I am Fitchburg State through and through.
What do you plan to do with your degree?
I work right now at a substantially separate preschool. My hope is that my master’s will allow me to become a BCBA. I work with students who have a lot of challenges, and the new behavioral program at Fitchburg State will allow me to sit for the boards. This program really set me up for success in my current job.

Nationalism has emerged as one of the most powerful forms of identity and ideology in modern world history, but historians and social scientists continue to debate its origins, history, and very definition.
This class combines historical case studies with an overview of key theories of nationalism to explore one of the most-contested topics in modern history. We will address key questions: What is nationalism? How did it emerge? How has it influenced history?
