-Degree Requirements-
School Location
The Master of Science Program in Speech-Language Pathology prepares students to meet the academic and clinical practicum requirements for the Certificate of Clinical Competence in Speech-Language Pathology of the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA). The broad goals of the program are to prepare professionals to be knowledgeable regarding normal communication processes, to be able to identify and describe disorders of communication, and to be able to develop and implement habilitative and rehabilitative programs for the communicatively impaired.

The master's degree program generally requires the equivalent of four semesters of full-time study, including the clinical practicum for those students who have met the prerequisites prior to entering the program. Many students also enroll for one or more summer terms. Course selection depends upon the student's undergraduate preparation and professional and certification goals. A minimum of sixty-four graduate credits plus successful completion of a comprehensive written examination are required. For qualified students, a thesis may be substituted for the written examination.

The program offers preparation for employment in medical, rehabilitation, educational, and community settings.
