Abstract: Research has been conducted worldwide to address various topics related to postsecondary education programs for deaf and hard-of-hearing (DHH) students. However, there is a paucity of reviews covering relevant research that could guide future efforts. Therefore, this literature scoping review was conducted to highlight exciting empirical studies in postsecondary education programs for DHH students. The review included 102 studies. The results of this review show the main characteristics of these studies, the years of publication, countries, research methods, and participants. This review also reveals 9 themes that were addressed in the reviewed studies. The most discussed topics relate to supportive services and the least to distance learning. Additionally, this analysis highlights the restrictions in the reviewed studies and the remaining areas that need to be addressed. Future directions are also discussed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
