Master of Science in Speech Language Pathology (Course based)

The course-based masters program of training in the Department of Communication Sciences and Disorders (formerly known as the Department of Speech Pathology and Audiology) commenced in the fall 1992-93 academic year. It is designed to develop competencies in the prevention, evaluation, treatment and management of articulation, language, fluency, voice and resonance disorders as well as in the fundamental practices of audiology, which is concerned with the identification, assessment, and rehabilitation of individuals with hearing disorders. However, this program does not qualify students to work as audiologists. The program is designed to provide students with the academic and clinical education required for SLP certification by provincial and national professional associations. Graduates from the program will be expected to demonstrate knowledge of learning principles, normal processes of speech, hearing and language, factors and conditions which cause and perpetuate disorders of speech, hearing, and language, and theoretical and methodological issues in the rehabilitation of communicative disorders in children and adults.The course-based option is a 2-year continuous program with a break in August between Year 1 and Year 2. There are both day and evening courses scheduled in Year 1 and first term of Year 2. The program integrates academic and clinical skills needed for practice in speech-language pathology. It involves a required course of study (51.5 credits), a minimum of 350 hours of clinical experience and a major scholarly project.
