Audiology Clinic/Speech Language Clinic |
Administered by the School of Speech, Language, and Hearing Sciences, the Clinic is designed as an educational, service, and research facility. Diagnostic, habilitative, and rehabilitative services are provided to individuals who have deficits in communicative function due to limitations of speech, language, and/or hearing. These individuals represent all ages from the infant/toddler period throughout late adulthood. Graduate students in speech-language pathology, audiology, and/or education of the deaf receive all of their on-campus clinical education in the clinical facility.
Some of the types of assessment and intervention programs provided include: augmentative communication, articulation and phonological disorders, specific language impairment, aphasia, dysphagia, apraxia of speech and other motor speech disorders, traumatic brain injury, cognitive-communicative disorders, language-based learning disabilities, cleft palate, voice and resonance disorders, fluency disorders, hearing loss and deafness. Programs specific to the audiologic area include hearing assessment, hearing aid evaluation and selection, assistive listening devices, earmolds, ear protectors, hearing conversation, and speech reading/aural rehabilitation.
Consultation, supervised field internships, a variety of scholarly research projects, continuing education workshops, grand rounds, and other service activities are also available through the Clinic.
In addition to the on-campus clinic, the School has an
extensive off-campus network of community sites at which students
obtain some of their clinical practicum hours. These
sites represent a cross-section of educational, medical, military,
private practice, and multicultural settings. Affiliation agreements
with all of the off-campus sites clearly dictate the responsibilities
of the School, the campus off-campus supervisors, and the
student clinicians. All students placed at these sites must be approved
for off-campus placement. In the event that the School
supervisors determine that the student is not ready for off-campus
placement, additional on-campus practica will be required.
