Speech-Language Pathology & Audiology Option
The Auburn Montgomery Speech-Language Pathology and Audiology program is one of only a few in the country where undergraduate students receive direct clinical experience with patients. After graduation, you are qualified to work in the public school systems of Alabama, providing speech-language therapy, or you can opt to pursue a graduate degree to qualify to work in private practice or a hospital-medical setting.
Students enter the Speech-Language Pathology and Audiology curriculum after achieving junior standing at AUM. Virtually all core curriculum coursework should have been completed so that professional education is not interrupted.
You will spend your junior and senior years completing academic coursework in speech-language pathology and audiology and obtaining required clinical training and experience with patients through the Speech and Hearing Center on AUM's campus. You will complete approximately 60 hours of supervised experience in speech-language therapy and assessment and treatment of patients with hearing disorders.
