Communication Sciences and Disorders

Program Overview

Are you exploring careers within the "helping" professions? If the idea of helping people with speech, language or hearing problems appeals to you, a career as a speech-language pathologist or audiologist might be for you.

In this major, you will fully explore the biological, physical, social, and linguistic aspects of communication, as well as what happens when communication is impaired, and how to treat various impairments.

糖心短视频app's Communication Sciences and Disorders major fully prepares students for graduate education and careers in these growing fields.

Curriculum

The Communication Sciences and Disorders bachelor's degree is offered in a 3-year accelerated or a 4-year traditional track.  In either track, students must complete 120 to 120.5 credits. The curriculum includes the prerequisite courses needed for admission to a graduate program in speech-language pathology or audiology. 

Hands-On Learning

Our state-of-the-art facilities include the exceptional Edward R. Leahy Jr. Hall, a modern facility constructed in 2015 with 25 laboratories, nine traditional and active learning classrooms, nine group study rooms, and multiple simulation environments. 

Students will actively engage in projects that examine and analyze current research, participate in clinical case study reviews, and develop empirical studies that focus on communication disorders. 

Career Outlook

The job outlook for speech-language pathologists and audiologists is strong as both fields present opportunities for high earnings and employment growth. 

The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics projects employment of speech-language pathologists and audiologists to grow 27% and 16%, respectively, between 2018 and 2028, which is faster than average for all occupations.
