Program Overview

The Autism and Behavioural Science program was developed in response to the growing public concern about services for children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD).

It was designed to deepen the expertise in the field of autism and behavioural sciences for application within the children’s sector, and simultaneously create a pool of qualified individuals to meet the needs of service agencies that provide autism or children’s services.

The program enables graduates with university degrees and graduates of Early Childhood Education, Social Service Worker, Child and Youth Care, Developmental Service Worker and similar programs to acquire the specialized skills and expertise they need to work with individuals with a diagnosis of autism.

Students learn about:

  • Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)
  • intervention methods including Intensive Behavioural Intervention (IBI)
  • Applied Behaviour Analysis theory (e.g. operant conditioning)
  • working with families and treatment teams
  • Relevant legislation
