Program Highlights

Onsite ProBono Clinic

Our Center for Communication Disorders provides free speech-language pathology services for underserved and vulnerable populations within our local community. As a student/graduate clinician in the clinic, you’ll build clinical skills, develop a rapport with your patients, and provide much-needed help to our community.

Medical Emphasis

Serve in any clinical setting, and meet the broad needs of your patients through our nuanced medical-based curriculum. Train on the most sophisticated equipment (endoscopy, video stroboscopy, etc). Learn how to assess, diagnose, treat, and even prevent a broad range of disorders. Prepare to serve in hospitals, acute care, rehab facilities, clinics, and schools.

Nationwide Externship Opportunity

With a network of over 200 clinical sites nationwide, you’ll find externship opportunities tailored to your professional goals and preferred practice settings. Because the second year is hybrid, students have the flexibility to complete their courses and externships anywhere in the country.

By the time you’ve completed your clinical training through three externships and three internships, you’ll have the experience to operate as an independent clinician.

Interprofessional Focus

Serve on a healthcare team as you work with students from other healthcare disciplines through our Interprofessional Practice Experience. Provide your unique professional perspective and learn from others as you help solve clinical dilemmas.
