About

Founded in 1906, Deaf & Hard of Hearing Education Program at Teachers College is one of the oldest deaf education programs in the country. Based on the belief that communication is a human right, our program prepares educators to partner with families in building a strong language foundation—whether spoken or signed–for children who are deaf and hard of hearing. Through interdisciplinary study in speech and hearing science, literacy, psychology, linguistics, and child development, our graduates are trained to meet the language and academic needs of deaf and hard of hearing children in a wide range of settings. Our comprehensive program provides advanced study across the continuum of language and communication modalities, including American Sign Language, listening and spoken language, and Cued Speech/Language.
