Dr. Catherine Rogers earned a B.A. in English and French from Millersville University of Pennsylvania, a Baccalaureat in Linguistics from the Catholic University of Louvain in Belgium and a Ph.D. in Linguistics and Cognitive Science from Indiana University. She completed a post-doctoral fellowship in Speech Perception and Production in the Department of Speech and Hearing Sciences at The Ohio State University, before coming to the University of South Florida in 1999. She currently serves as an Associate Editor for the Journal of the Acoustical Society of America and recently served as the Chair of the Speech Communication Technical Committee of the Acoustical Society of America and Technical Program Co-Chair for the Fall 2016 Meeting of the Acoustical Society of America. Dr. Rogers's research focuses on the development of proficiency in second-language speech perception and production under a variety of listening and speaking conditions. She also collaborates with colleagues in in Audiology in research examining speech perception by listeners with hearing impairment and/or cochlear implants. These two research themes are unified by her broader interest in speech perception and production under conditions of linguistic or cognitive challenge. She has received two awards for her teaching at USF, the USF Outstanding Undergraduate Teaching Award in 2011 and the Kosove Distinguished Undergraduate Teaching and Service Award in 2014. Mostly recently, she co-chaired a special session at the Acoustical Society of America in Fall 2017, entitled "Teaching phonetics and speech science in the new millennium: Challenges and opportunities," in which she presented results of her experience in implementing a flipped classroom model in a phonetics course.
