Description

Faculty of Human Sciences

Professorship for Pedagogy and Didactics for People with Hearing Impairment (Focus on Sign Language):

We are one of the largest and oldest universities in Europe and one of the largest employers in our region.

With our wide range of subjects, dynamic development of research priorities, and our location in the heart of Cologne, we are attractive to students and researchers worldwide.

We offer diverse career opportunities in science, technology, and administration.

Our area of work covers pedagogy and didactics for people with hearing impairment in all educational contexts, with a special focus on sign language and its didactics. This includes children and adolescents with peripheral hearing loss or deafness (with and without cochlear implants) as well as those with central impairments in auditory processing. This group of people is very heterogeneous and requires individualized concepts for promoting their linguistic and socio-emotional development throughout their educational career.
