Summary

The Bachelor of Science degree in Speech, Language and Hearing Sciences provides students with the foundational background to function in a changing health care landscape.

Upon graduation, students are equipped to pursue graduate degrees in speech-language pathology and audiology. Descriptions of these two vital members of the health care team are found in the career section below. Graduates may choose to use these skills by assuming positions as a speech-language pathology assistant, research assistant or patient care advocate.

While pursuing a bachelor's degree in speech, language and hearing sciences, students observe adults and children with various speech, language and auditory disorders. After completing the required courses, students have an opportunity to participate in an elective clinical practicum. Many students also choose to study abroad.

The Speech, Language and Hearing Sciences B.S. to M.S. Accelerated Program will allow students to graduate with their B.S. and M.S. in speech-language pathology in five years compared to the standard six-year track.
