The master's program in speech-language pathology typically consists of five semesters.
Students enroll for classes and engage in clinical practicum each semester.
Eight of the sixteen weeks are spent in a school setting and eight are spent in a hospital or other clinical setting. Off-Campus sites for practicum are available in essentially all the major hospitals and rehabilitation centers in northern Illinois and a large number of school districts. Specialized practicum is available in essentially any type of setting in which students express an interest. We have placed students in neonatal intensive care units, special education classrooms, head injury centers, dysphagia units, etc. Out of state practica may be arranged for interested students.
