Speech-language pathologists identify, assess, and provide treatment for communication and swallowing functions and disorders. These services are provided to the following individuals:

  • across the entire age span from birth through adulthood;
  • from diverse language, ethnic, cultural, and socioeconomic backgrounds; and
  • who may have multiple disabilities.

Speech-language pathologists hold either a master's or doctoral degree, the Certificate of Clinical Competence (CCC) of the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA), and where applicable, state licensure. They manage and supervise speech-language pathology programs, counsel individuals about normal and disordered communication, provide preventative, consultative, and referral services, and facilitate the development and maintenance of human communication and swallowing.

It qualifies graduates for certification and licensure in the profession of speech-language pathology.

The mission of the Master of Arts program in Speech-Language Pathology is to provide best-practice education for individuals seeking academic and clinical preparation for the professional practice degree in speech-language pathology.
