3.00 Credits
Students learn the fundamentals of anatomy, physiology and neurology related to speech production and hearing in a lab setting. Systems studied include respiration, phonation, articulation, resonation, hearing and neurological. In addition, information regarding feeding and feeding strategies will be covered. Prerequisite: Instructor approval required.

3.00 Credits
This course provides a theoretical and descriptive framework in the study of language development. In this course students explore the fundamental stages and processes of language development. Students study the components of the language system (phonology, morphology, semantics, syntax, and pragmatics) as well as the development of these components. The primary focus is on typical patterns of development; however, the development of language in special populations: speakers of a variety of dialects, second-language learners, and individuals with a variety of disabilities and impairments such as autism, SLI (specific language disorder), and hearing impairment will also be explored. Prerequisite: Instructor approval.
-
3.00 Credits
Students learn the articulatory foundations of the description and classification of speech sounds. Students learn the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA), physiological properties of the speech mechanism, methods of transcription and dialectal variations. Students learn the auditory discrimination necessary for recording normal and disordered articulatory production. Prerequisite: Instructor approval required.
-
3.00 Credits
Students are provided an overview of communication disorders, including classification, assessment and remediation of speech, language, literacy, swallowing and hearing disorders in children and adults. Students address the role of the speech-language pathologist and audiologist in educational and medical settings and examines multicultural and multilingual diversity, developmental disabilities and collaboration with educators. Prerequisite: Completion of SLPA 1505.
-
3.00 Credits
Students explore speech and voice production with an emphasis on improving vocal skills for effective communication. Prerequisite: Completion of SLPA 1506.
-
2.00 Credits
Students are introduced to audiology, audiograms, hearing screening and hearing assessments. Students are also introduced to aural rehabilitation, and work with hearing aids and hearing assistive technologies (HAT). Prerequisite: Completion of SLPA 1511.
-
3.00 Credits
Students examine adult neurogenic communication disorders including aphasia, dysarthria, apraxia, right hemisphere disorders, dementia, and traumatic brain injury. Students also identify and practice the speech and language treatment techniques used to treat these disorders. Prerequisite: Completion of SLPA 1511.
-
3.00 Credits
This course focuses on the study of language disorders from infancy through the preschool years. Students will examine and demonstrate various treatment approaches for prelinguistic skills, emerging language,and conversational language skills. The use of language sampling as an assessment tool, intervention strategy and progress monitoring will be explored. Additional considerations addressed in this course include the interventions of various low-incidence populations, the use of indirect treatment strategies when working with caregivers, and the consideration of multi-cultural issues when providing treatment.

2.00 Credits
Students continue clinical observation of practices and procedures required in speech-language pathology in preparation for clinical fieldwork. Student observations occur in diverse settings including educational, medical, assisted living facilities, and private clinics. Students will have a total of 20 hours of field observation in a variety of the settings noted above. Students write observation reports, lesson plans, treatment objectives, SOAP notes, and complete data collection activities. Prerequisite: Completion of SLPA 1502.
