Sign language interpreters make communication accessible between hearing and Deaf or Hard of Hearing people. Interpreters listen to a spoken message and convert it into a visual message as well as converting the visual message back into a spoken message. A career in interpreting should appeal to those who have a special interest in language and communication and who enjoy working with people. ASL courses may be used to fulfill the foreign language requirement for a BA degree when approved by the specific program. Consult with the Chair of the program for approval.
