DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION AND REHABILITATION AT THE UNIVERSITY OF SARAJEVO, BOSNIA AND HERZEGOVINA

Journal Title: Journal of Special Education and Rehabilitation - Year 2017, Vol 18, Issue 1

Abstract

Given the increased pressure on educational system in Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH) to fully embrace inclusive education and to provide appropriate supports to all students, there was a need for establishing a new department of Education and Rehabilitation in BiH. Thus, the Faculty of the Educational Sciences at the University of Sarajevo initiated and made a feasibility study on the need for establishing the new department. The feasibility study was then approved by the Government and Assembly of the Sarajevo Canton. To date, there were only two such departments at the state Universities in BiH, one in Tuzla (Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina) and one in Fo?a (Republic of Srpska). This will be the third, state-supported, department for educating experts in the field of special education and rehabilitation of children with developmental disabilities.
