Speech-Language Pathology

Our Accelerated Health Sciences Track in Physical Therapy, Occupational Therapy, Physician Assistant, and Doctor of Pharmacy allow for qualified students to finish their professional degree faster and at a lower cost by transferring into the graduate programs directly from Touro’s Lander Colleges prior to the completion of a bachelor’s degree.

The Integrated Honors Track programs in Health Sciences, Osteopathic Medicine, and Pharmacy offer highly focused and challenging curricula for students set on a career in these fields. Graduates of our honors tracks receive priority admission to Touro’s related graduate and professional programs.

Speech-language pathologists (SLP) help people of all ages and backgrounds with various speech, language, swallowing, and hearing disorders to communicate more effectively, clearly, and fluently. Whether a patient stutters or has a hearing impairment, cleft palate or a speech and language delay, the speech-language pathologist must be able to provide compassionate, competent care.

With our rigorous academic curriculum and focus on experiential learning, the master’s degree program in speech-language pathology at The School of Health Sciences prepares you to become highly skilled and knowledgeable healthcare providers, as well as adept researchers and academics.

Speech-language pathologists enjoy working in many interesting settings. Workplace environments include schools, hospitals, nursing homes, residential healthcare facilities, health departments, private practices, and universities.

You’ll need an undergraduate degree in speech to get started. Detailed requirements can be found on the SLP program website.
