Answer
Hi,

I suggest you do some research on schools that offer degrees in what you're looking for. Google works great for that. There is a great school in or near Nashville, I believe it's Belmont. I'm not quite sure but a colleague received a degree in that area with the focus you are interested in and it's said to be one of the best schools in the field. There's a good chance you'll have to travel a good distance for what you want, unless by chance you happen to live close to one of the highly rated schools in that field. Of the three universities I've attended, I received the bulk of my training in that field at the University of Illinois (the flagship university, or the state's "primary" one, located in Champaign/Urbana, IL). It has a great program for that. Don't limit yourself to just what I mention - "googling" it will bring up great options to look into (try the advanced search for fine tuning results).

Best of luck,
Sean
