Overview

Through rigorous clinical training, students of the Speech, Language and Hearing Science program at Temple University learn to evaluate, diagnose and treat communication disorders. You will be exposed to a wide range of disorders and gain experience with ethnically diverse populations and individuals across the lifespan.

Speech-language pathology involves the study and treatment of a broad range of speech, language, social communication and cognitive-communication disorders. These may include developmental delays and disorders such as autism, apraxia of speech, dyslexia and stuttering. Graduates of the program are prepared to work as speech-language pathologists in a wide range of clinical sites, including hospitals, other inpatient and outpatient settings, private practices, rehabilitation centers, and schools.

Completing this program will make you eligible to apply for membership in the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association.
