One Field. Two Ways to Study.

Since 1965, Ithaca College has been educating graduate students in the field of speech-language pathology and audiology, bringing all of its resources and facilities to bear on their success. Today the department offers two programs leading to the master of science degree:

  • Speech-Language Pathology (M.S.)
  • Teaching Students with Speech and Language Disabilities (M.S.)

Both programs are accredited by the Council on Academic Accreditation of the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association and are registered with the New York State Education Department. Students majoring in Teaching Students with Speech and Language Disabilities are eligible for an initial teaching credential. Professional teaching certification requires three years of successful teaching experience.

Hands-On Experience

Graduate students in speech-language pathology and audiology have many opportunities to gain hands-on experience with clients. The Sir Alexander Ewing-Ithaca College Speech and Hearing Clinic, which enjoys excellent standing in the community, offers on-campus clinical placements for graduate students. And the department’s extensive network of off-campus clinical affiliates assures access to comprehensive experience in a variety of settings, making students exceptionally well prepared for professional practice upon graduation.

Active, Dedicated Faculty

Most importantly, members of the school’s faculty are actively involved in their profession and in scholarship -- and they take teaching seriously. The department admits approximately 20 full-time graduate students each academic year, which gives students a tailored learning environment for individual instruction and personal attention.
