Master of Arts [M.A] [Speech, Language, and Hearing Sciences] From University of Connecticut

The Department of Speech, Language, and Hearing Sciences (SLHS) focuses on studying the normal development of speech, language, and hearing as well as the understanding and clinical management of disorders in these processes. The SLHS program offers curricula leading to a Master of Arts (M.A.) degree in Speech, Language and Hearing Sciences. The full-time program is typically completed in two years (for students with a Bachelor’s degree in SLHS) or three years (for students with a Bachelor’s degree in an area other than SLHS). Once admitted to the program, students choose either the thesis (Plan A) or non-thesis (Plan B) option. The M.A. program in speech-language pathology leads to clinical certification and is accredited by the American Speech-Language Hearing Association’s (ASHA) Council on Academic Accreditation (CAA).
