Internships & Career Opportunities

Employment rates are typically 100%, with graduates accepting positions in Missouri and several states around the nation. Employment of speech-language pathologists is projected to grow 19 percent from 2012 to 2022, faster than the average for all occupations.

As the large baby-boom population grows older, there will be more instances of health conditions that cause speech or language impairments, such as strokes and hearing loss. More speechlanguage pathologists will be needed to treat the increased number of speech and language disorders in the older population.
