Overview

Working closely with our caring faculty, you’ll be prepared for graduate school in speech-language pathology or audiology, with general and discipline-specific knowledge, including clinical examples in the classroom and in the Speech and Hearing Clinic.

Our Communication Sciences and Disorders program at the the State University of New York Plattsburgh focuses on the scientific basis and nature of human communication, its disorders, assessment, and remediation.

You will study the normal processes of hearing, speech and language development, and disorders such as articulation and phonological disorders, language-learning delays and disorders, aphasia, autism, stuttering, hearing impairment, deafness, and others.

In our Speech and Hearing Center, you will interact with faculty and graduate students. We will introduce you to functioning as a student clinician through observing assessment and treatment sessions.

Although you will later perform the majority of your clinical work at the graduate level, some students have the opportunity to participate in an undergraduate clinical experience during their last year of study.
