Texas Woman’s University has the longest-standing program for preparing teachers of the deaf in the state of Texas. Our program prepares teachers of the deaf with a comprehensive philosophy for teaching students who are deaf/hard of hearing.
TWU seeks to create purpose-driven, innovative educators of students who are deaf/hard of hearing. Graduate students preparing to become teachers of students who are deaf/ hard of hearing and leaders in the field of deaf education are educated to understand the communication and educational issues associated with various types and degrees of hearing loss. Deaf education students are educated online and via practice-based coursework in methods of teaching communication, language, and content information to persons of all ages in a variety of settings with various degrees of hearing loss.
