The goal of the program in communication sciences and disorders is to educate professionals who are competent to help children and adults with communicative problems of speech, hearing, and language. The undergraduate program provides the foundation for the MS program in communication sciences and disorders, which is accredited by the Council on Academic Accreditation and meets the current requirements in speech language pathology for the Certificate of Clinical Competence of the American Speech–Language and Hearing Association. Determination of the student’s program of study and the completion of all requirements for certification are the responsibility of the student and the advisor.
Students participate in observations of a variety of disorders and age groups in the K-State Speech and Hearing Center. Students may, on invitation of the faculty, participate in supervised direct clinical experience in the K-State Speech and Hearing Center.
