National Technical Institute for the Deaf (NTID), the first and largest technological college in the world for students who are deaf or hard of hearing[citation needed], was founded in 1965. As one of eight colleges within the Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT) in Rochester, New York, NTID provides academic programs, access, ASL in-class interpreters and support services—including on-site audiological, speech-language, and cochlear implant support. NTID has 1,100 deaf and hard-of-hearing students who study with 14,400 hearing students on the RIT campus.
In addition to the Master of Science Program in Secondary Education of Students who are Deaf or Hard-of-Hearing, NTID also offers associate and bachelor’s degree programs in ASL-English Interpretation.
