The Virginia Murray Sowell
Center for Research and Education in Visual Impairment at
Texas Tech University in Lubbock, Texas, prepares specialists
in visual impairment, orientation
and mobility, and deafblindness.
It promotes quality research to address the academic and social
needs of school-age students with visual impairments and provides
public service to assist local, national, and international
constituencies. The Center offers degree
and certification
programs in visual impairment (VI), orientation and mobility
(O&M), and deafblindness (DB). Scholarships
are offered for students in both degree and certification
programs. The students in the program are often found throughout
Texas and the bordering counties, as most of the programs
are available through distance education.
