Deaf Studies employs a multidisciplinary perspective to examine Deaf and hard-of-hearing individuals within American and global contexts. This academic discipline fosters appreciation of the Deaf community as both a linguistic and cultural entity, while challenging students to critically evaluate prevailing stereotypes and policies. Through this framework, students develop skills to advocate for positive change within their own communities and beyond, ultimately working toward improving conditions for Deaf and hard-of-hearing populations.
