One out of every ten people has a speech, language or hearing problem. If you have a passion for helping others overcome these issues to live fulfilling lives, our major in communication sciences and disorders is a perfect fit for you. With an undergraduate major, you'll be ready for graduate school in speech-language pathology or audiology.
Why This Program & What You'll Learn
With this program, you'll learn to prevent, identify, and treat communication disorders and help people on a holistic basis. Communication disorders generally do not occur in isolation, they can be related to other problems as well. Social, emotional, educational, and vocational difficulties may stem from or be aggravated by communication disorders.
To work as a speech-language pathologist or audiologist, you are required to meet each state's professional qualifications. This requires a graduate degree at the masters or doctoral level. At CMU we carefully tailor your study of communication disorders at the undergraduate level to lead seamlessly into graduate level studies.
The minor in communication sciences and disorders prepares students for several career opportunities. These roles are mainly related to health and education or more advanced educational opportunities.
