About the course

The major in communication sciences and disorders provides students with opportunities for study in the areas of speech?language pathology, audiology, and the normal aspects of speech, hearing, and language. Most students pursue this major because they hope to work as a licensed and certi?ed clinical speech-language pathologist or audiologist, assisting clients with communication impairments arising from acquired neurological conditions, developmental conditions, genetic conditions, or unknown causes. Professional clinical practice follows completion of a master's degree in speech?language pathology, or a doctor of audiology degree. Some students pursue the undergraduate major as a foundation for a research career in speech, language or hearing sciences. Others pursue the major as a preliminary step toward advanced training in other professional ?elds (e.g., medicine, nursing, special education), or as a liberal arts degree that could lead to a variety of different career paths (speech?language pathology assistant, educational assistant, line therapist).
