The graduate program in speech-language pathology from SIUE's School of Education, Health and Human Behavior combines classroom instruction, research and practical experiences. A full range of courses and practicum opportunities prepares students to work with a variety of individuals with communication needs in various work settings. The program is typically completed in five to six full-time semesters. For the past several years, 100 percent of our students have achieved a passing score on the PRAXIS examination. Courses and clinical experiences are provided during the day with some evening offerings. This program is completed entirely on the Edwardsville campus. The speech-language pathology program within the Department of Applied Health offers unique opportunities for practicum experiences on-and off-campus. The program has agreements with nationally and internationally known hospitals, agencies, rehabilitation centers, nursing homes and educational facilities. The program can provide students with exceptional experiences with children and adults with neurological disorders, hearing impairments, autism, speech and language impairments, aphasia, stuttering and voice disorders. The program also operates a Speech-Language-Hearing Center that provides intervention and assessment for children and adults with a wide range of communication needs, including speech, language, cognition, accent modification and transgender voice services. The Center, located on the first floor of the Vadalabene Center, includes nine fully-equipped treatment rooms and an observation room. Graduate students in speech-language pathology, under supervision of certified faculty, provide all the intervention and assessments completed in the Speech-Language-Hearing Center.
