Required Allied Courses

Undergraduate majors in Communication Sciences and Disorders are required to complete at least 9 hours in allied subjects. Three allied credit hours from each of the following areas are required to comply with the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association's (ASHA) standards for certification:

• 3 credit hours of a biological science (e.g., biology, general anatomy & physiology, neuroanatomy, neurophysiology, genetics, etc.)
• 3 credit hours of a physical science (e.g., physics, chemistry, etc.)
• 3 credit hours of social or behavioral science (e.g., psychology, sociology, cultural anthropology, etc.)

Allied courses may also be used to fulfill university general education requirements.

Clinical Observation Hours

Student must also complete 25 clock-hours of observation of speech, language, and/or hearing treatment before graduation.

Transfer Students

Many courses from other universities may be used to fulfill the Allied Course Requirement. Please meet with the Departmental Advisor to determine which transfer courses may be approved as allied courses.
