Rehabilitation Specializations
Many Rehabilitation Services majors continue to choose the option of specializing in Addiction Rehabilitation, Career Services, Psychosocial Rehabilitation, or Therapeutic Recreation. With an interest in working with particular populations and/or problem areas, these specializations provide a framework for pertinent coursework to help the student develop relevant knowledge and skills. The specializations also may aid the student in the attainment of a specific proven credential, such as state licensure, and state or national certification. Each specialization requires 20 credits: 16 in specialized coursework (course substitutions must be approved by your REH program advisor), and a relevant field experience (minimum 4 credits) working in the specific area. Students are required to earn a grade of "C" in these courses. On rare occasions an advisor may make course substitutions for the listed requirements.
