Yes, you can. Depending on your college/university you may have to do some graduate work. When I went back for my MA I wanted it in Family Studies since my BA was all ready in Child development, but the university wanted me to take under grad class work, so I went back into my education department. I could have worked on a MA in special education, reading instruction, curriculum development, or counseling. I chose the counseling major and didn't have to do any under grad work. So, check with the education department of your college.

Is there a bachelor's degree in special education?

Yes, but unfortunately there is no longer a special education degree in K-12... I know that the SUNY system definitely has a program for "Childhood with Special Education" because I have it (from SUNY GENESO).. To be certified k-12 in special education, there are a couple of graduate programs that allow you to achieve it... or, depending on which subject area you "concentrate" or "minor" in.. you can be certified to just teach that subject area in special education k-12.. hope this helps! :)
