Program Highlights
Onsite Teaching Clinic
Our Center for Communication Disorders (CCD) is a supervised, faculty-directed teaching clinic where you’ll gain hands-on clinical experience under close faculty supervision. Patients are matched to the clinical training, so you’ll build focused skill in specific disorder areas as you develop the clinical judgment and confidence to practice independently.
Medical Emphasis
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.
