The Master of Science (M.S.) educational program in Speech-Language Pathology (residential) at the University of Texas at Tyler is a candidate for Accreditation by the Council on Academic Accreditation in Audiology and Speech-Language Pathology (CAA) of the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA). Students who attend an Accreditation Candidate speech language pathology program are eligible for ASHA Certification, State licensure, and employment. They will enjoy the same rights and privileges as students graduating from an accredited program. The program is designed for individuals with a bachelor’s degree in communication sciences and disorders, and for other individuals with a bachelor’s in another field (given that they have completed all the prerequisite leveling courses in communication sciences and disorders). The program provides students with the academic and clinical coursework required for pursuing national certification (ASHA certification), state licensure as a speech-language pathologist, and state certification as teacher of the speech and hearing impaired. The program is located at the UT Tyler Health Science Center (11937 US-271, Tyler, TX 75708). The program’s new Speech-Language-Hearing Clinic is within the UT Health Science Center’s Family Medicine Unit and accepts pediatric and adult patients who have (or are suspected of having) speech, language, social communication, and swallowing disorders. The program is full time and in person. It consists of 5 consecutive semesters (including one summer) to be completed within 2 years. All academic courses and clinical practicum internships are face-to-face. The clinical practicum involves direct delivery of diagnostic and treatment services to patients at the graduate program’s Speech-Language-Hearing Clinic and external placement sites. Through their clinical experiences on and off campus, students complete the required 400 practicum hours. These clinical experiences cover the whole range of communication and swallowing disorders in the scope of practice of speech language pathology.
