The reading clinic offers an environment and materials designed to support pupils who have reading disabilities. Other learning materials for reading and language arts development are available through the University library which includes an extensive curriculum laboratory. One or more courses from a particular cluster may be provided for educational systems and within communities, as well as special courses designed to meet a school district's specific needs. Interested parties are encouraged to contact the Reading and Language Arts Department Chair for further exploration of this option. The academic department also offers a course designed to improve personal reading skills for all interested students of Central Connecticut State University.
Graduate assistants work in the reading clinic and help faculty members with research activities.
Assistantships offer graduate students academically-related work experience with faculty members who are active in the field and who may serve as mentors within the profession, as preparation for college or university teaching in the discipline, and to enhance their own research interests.
