Ball State's exceptional needs education program focusing on deaf/hard of hearing students stands as Indiana's sole specialized teaching major in this field.
The curriculum covers American Sign Language, deaf culture studies, and specialized teaching methods for K-12 students with hearing challenges. Students also earn certification for mild intervention instruction in elementary grades (K-6).
Beyond classroom learning, the program prioritizes hands-on training through placements at the Indiana School for the Deaf, area schools, and community organizations. The educational journey concludes with student teaching rotations in diverse classroom environments.
