THE MARQUETTE ADVANTAGE
GET STARTED RIGHT AWAY — AND FINISH ON TIME. With direct admission to the program, you’ll begin taking speech pathology and audiology courses in your first term. And you’ll graduate in four years
ON-SITE CLINICALS. Supervised by faculty who are certified speech-language pathologists and audiologists, you’ll work in Marquette’s Speech and Hearing Clinic with children and adults who have speech, language or hearing communication difficulties — something many programs don’t offer to their undergraduates.
BE PREPARED. Marquette’s curriculum and clinicals prepare you to meet licensure requirements for the state of Wisconsin, as well as requirements for certification by the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association.
WORK WITH CHILDREN. Help children overcome speech and language impairments, and do it right here in Marquette’s preschool language and phonology clinics.
PRACTICE WHAT YOU'VE LEARNED. Work with your professors as they conduct research in areas such as child language, or as they help adults regain communication skills lost to traumatic brain injuries or strokes.
BILINGUAL CERTIFICATION. In your first year, you can begin course work for a Bilingual English-Spanish Certificate in speech-language pathology, preparing you to evaluate and treat communication disorders in Spanish-speaking people in educational and medical settings. It’s the only program of its kind in the Midwest.
