    About

    Overview However, it is STILL a college degree and what you choose to do with it is up to you. It is important for students to understand that this Hearing and Speech Science program from University of Maryland requires a graduate degree. Students should also be advised that graduate school admissions are highly competitive, and they should be prepared to perform to the best of their ability throughout the rigorous undergraduate curriculum in order to be competitive when applying to graduate programs.The field of Speech-Language Pathology deals with the diagnosis and remediation of speech, language, voice, swallowing, and fluency problems in children and adults. The field of Audiology deals with the measurement of hearing and the rehabilitation of those with hearing impairments. Both the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (and the State of Maryland (require a Master’s Degree in Speech-Language Pathology and a Doctoral Degree in Audiology (Au.D.) as the minimum educational background for certification and licensure. There are very few opportunities to work in these fields with only a Bachelor’s Degree. In addition to these clinical fields, the experimental study and teaching of Hearing and Speech Sciences generally requires a Ph.D. as the minimal graduate degree.
