There's a need for interpreters for deaf and hard-of-hearing children in Arizona. Are you ready to answer the call? Elementary and secondary schools are most affected by the shortage of interpreters for deaf and hard-of-hearing individuals in Arizona and across the nation. The Bachelor of Science in Deaf Studies with an emphasis in Educational Interpreting prepares students to become interpreters for deaf and hard-of-hearing children in educational settings. In addition to becoming fluent in American Sign Language (ASL), students gain a cultural appreciation and respect for deaf culture, utilize current theories/models of interpreting, and gain practical experience through school-based internships.
LEARNING OUTCOMES
Critical Thinking; Students will summarize, synthesize, and critically analyze ideas from multiple sources in order to draw well-supported conclusions and solve problems.
Ethics and Social Responsibility; Students will make reasoned ethical judgments, showing awareness of multiple value systems and taking responsibility for the consequences of their actions. They will apply these judgments, using collaboration and leadership skills, to promote social justice in their local, national, and global communities.
Identity and Culture; Students will demonstrate sensitivity and tolerance of complex social identities, including deaf identities, and the interrelations within and among diverse cultures and groups.
Knowledge and Inquiry; Students will apply knowledge, modes of inquiry, and technological competence from a variety of disciplines in order to understand human experience and the natural world.
Language and Communication; Students will use American Sign Language (ASL) and written English to communicate effectively with diverse audiences, for a variety of purposes, and in a variety of settings.
