Master's degree in defectology. Special defectological education

The main condition for admission to a master's program is the presence of already completed higher education under a bachelor's or specialist's program (for example, in a specialty).

It is necessary to pass a written interdisciplinary exam in defectology, pass an oral interview.
Full-time education will be completed within a 2-year period, part-time and part-time forms will require training for 2.5 years.

A specialist in fetal health carries a great social burden and is very useful for society, combining the activities of a teacher, a psychologist, and, in part, a physician. It is worth paying attention to the specialty for persons capable of dedication.

Brief description of the specialty

Defectology is divided into several areas: work with children and people with impaired vision, hearing, speech, intelligence or physical health. The specialist can advise children with mild disabilities, put speech and phonetics, or he can select difficult cases and people who will need to be accompanied all their life.

Benefits of studying in a master's degree

The specialty is heuristic and scientific and practical, research work is very important for it. The master's degree will teach methodology and research theory. The ideas about the correction and the reasons for the occurrence of health deviations are constantly changing, therefore, constant training should accompany a teacher-defectologist.

Large universities in Moscow

Good specialists are produced by:

Moscow City Pedagogical University;
Metropolitan Pedagogical State University;
Russian State Social University;
and several more educational institutions in the capital.

Subjects studied by students

Regardless of the specialization, students study blocks of psychological, medical and special disciplines, defectology and its biomedical foundations, speech therapy, child psychocorrection, psychodiagnostics of persons with disabilities.

Knowledge and skills acquired

The salary depends on the chosen profile: speech therapists are in demand on the market and can count on an average income of 40 thousand rubles, psychologists and teachers earn less. The society is aimed at developing tolerance, there is hope that such specialists will be in great demand and earn money.

Continuing education in the specialty

The direction implies constant self-development, readiness for improvement and scientific work. If a specialist is interested in a specific area of research, it makes sense for him to enroll in graduate school at the Department of Psychology and develop a thesis on the selected issue.

Applicants are offered a wide range of training areas. One of the specialties that can be seen in some universities, academies and institutes is “Special (defectological) education”. People who have studied in this area are considered unique and in-demand specialists in the modern world. Which universities offer this. Who do the graduates who have mastered the educational program and received diplomas work?

Defectological education: the essence of the direction

Children and adults with disabilities need qualified help from specialists. It is provided by trained pedagogues-defectologists. People receive such a profession after completing their studies in universities in the direction of "Defectological education".

During their studies, each student studies many disciplines. These include Pedagogy, Psychology, Medical and Biological Foundations of Defectology, and the Clinic of Intellectual Disabilities, etc. As a result of mastering the program, a person can engage in corrective-pedagogical and consultative-diagnostic activities :

correct developmental disorders;
develop individual educational and correctional programs;
study the features of psychophysical development and the needs of persons with disabilities;
give recommendations to persons with disabilities, their family members.

Profiles of special (defectological) education

Entering the direction "Defectological education", applicants, as a rule, make a choice between profiles. Their number depends on the university. For example, applicants for a bachelor's degree may be offered the following profiles:

"Special Psychology";
"Speech therapy";
"Pedagogical and psychological support of children with disabilities";
"Oligophrenopedagogy".

To obtain deeper knowledge in many universities in the direction of "Defectological (special) education" a master's degree has been created. The training programs are as follows:

"Inclusive Education";
"Pedagogical and psychological support of persons with disabilities";
"Speech therapy (education of persons with speech impairment)";
"Innovative technologies in defectological education".

The relevance of the specialty in the modern world

Universities, academies and institutes with the specialty "Defectological education" invite students to study. Members of admissions committees, teachers talk about its relevance, because nowadays there is a rather acute problem of education of children with disabilities. About 9-11% of children from the population need the help of teacher-defectologists. Some adults also need help.

People who have studied in the direction of "Defectological Special Education" are engaged in the development, upbringing and education of children with various developmental problems related to both the psychological and physical spheres. The areas of work of specialists are aimed at persons with acquired and congenital visual impairments, hearing impairments, pathologies, decreased intelligence, and psychoneurotic reactions.

The presence of the necessary personal qualities

The direction of training "Defectological education" is interesting, but it is not suitable for all people. When choosing this specialty, it should be borne in mind that a defectologist must have certain personal qualities. This specialist should be:

proactive;
energetic;
friendly;
tactful;
confident in the successful results of their activities, the applied correction program.

The future specialist should be optimistic. Optimism among already working people is manifested in a socially active attitude towards a subject with disabilities, towards the society in which the pupils will be included, towards himself.

Getting an education at RNU

Almost in every city there is a higher educational institution in which there is a direction "Defectological education". There are several of them functioning in Moscow. One of the educational institutions is the Russian New University (RNU). It is an autonomous non-profit educational organization that has existed since 1991.

"Defectological education" at the university also offers pedagogy. Upon admission, each applicant is given the opportunity to choose the most convenient form of study. In the daytime department, classes are held 5 days a week. Couples start at the university at 9 o'clock. In the correspondence course, students independently master the educational program. Classes at the university are held 2 times a year during sessions, the duration of which is about 20 days.

Education at the Ministry of Education and Science

Among the universities that train teachers-defectologists, one can also cite the example of the Moscow Psychological and Social University (MPSU). This educational organization is also an autonomous non-profit institution. The university has been operating since 1995.

The Moscow Psychological and Social University, formerly called the Institute, implements a huge number of modern educational programs. Among them there is "Defectological education" for a bachelor's degree. Full-time, part-time and part-time studies are offered. Master's programs for this direction are not provided at the university.

The future of graduates

People who have studied in the direction of "Defectological (special) education" in universities and received diplomas can work in various organizations:

in educational institutions of all types and levels;
in special (correctional) preschool, school and medical institutions;
in centers for the provision of psychological, medical, pedagogical and social assistance to the population;
in institutions of social protection;
in charities and public organizations to work with people with disabilities.

Graduates will have a difficult job in the future. When working with a specific person, they will need to help not only him, but also his loved ones. Let's give an example. So, the teacher-defectologist deals with the child in accordance with the developed correctional program. Both he and his parents, close relatives need qualified help, because the family plays an important role in the process of correctional and pedagogical influence. The essence of helping parents is to advise on the development, learning, socialization and integration of the child into society. Thus, the work will be difficult, but at the same time interesting, therefore the specialty "Defectological (special) education" deserves attention.
