This Center was established to develop, refine, and disseminate innovative technologies that will increase the learning of deaf children. Our first project, developing computer programs, which will enhance the acquisition of speech and language skills of deaf children, is a joint venture with Intel Corporation, Oregon Graduate Institute of Science and Technology, and the University of California at Santa Cruz. Startup funding has been provided by the National Science Foundation. Further information on this project is available at the NSF Challenge Grant Page and on our In the News page. This 15-month program will emphasize a thorough grounding in knowledge of language and speech development along with intensive practicum with children of preschool and elementary age.
Fellowships including tuition support and stipends are available.
