Bachelor of Science in Communicative Disorders and Sciences

Program Overview

If you want to give the gift of communication as a human right for all and positively impact lives through a career in speech-language pathology or audiology, then you should major in Communicative Disorders and Sciences (CDS). California faces among the worst shortages in the nation of speech-language pathologists and audiologists. Both these dynamic professions enjoy an excellent future outlook as noted on the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association website. Speech-language pathologists identify, evaluate, and treat infants, children, youth, and adults with speech, language, hearing, cognitive-communication, and swallowing disorders and audiologists identify, diagnose, and treat persons with hearing and balance disorders.
