20 courses with the subject SLP, each shown exactly as we captured it from the college's catalog, with every element we hold. Where the wording looks broken, that is our reading of the catalog, not the college's text.
SLP 501Neurology and Physiology3
This course is a comprehensive study of the neurological bases of speech and language production, speech and language perception, and swallowing. The physiological bases of language, respiration, phonation, resonation, articulation, speech perception, and swallowing are studied.
This course explores language disorders from infancy through the preschool years. Topics addressed include underlying etiologies, clinical characteristics, assessment, evidenced-based intervention, and current issues in the research literature.
The advanced study of disordered speech production including articulation and phonological disorders. The course focuses on the analyses of research-based approaches to evaluation and treatment of speech sound disorders.
A comprehensive study of acquired language disorders including aphasia and right hemisphere dysfunction following damage or deterioration of the cortical and subcortical zone(s) of language. Emphasis on assessment and treatment of acquired conditions.
This course provides a historical perspective of the speech-language pathology profession, as well as content related to current trends and issues. The course will include discussion of the importance of professional responsibility in the health care role, understanding the relationship between a speech-language pathologist and other health care professionals, and understanding of the ASHA Code of Ethics and legal aspects of speech-language pathology practice.

Prerequisite(s): Take SLP-501
This course explores the study of the normal physiologic process of voice production and resonance and the etiologic bases of voice disorders. Assessment procedures including instrumentation for examination and interpretation of laryngeal structure and function for the purpose of differential diagnosis will be included. The development of treatment plans based on etiology will be addressed.
The study of the neuromotor system responsible for speech. The content will include etiology and therapy for dysarthria, childhood and adult apraxia, cerebral palsy and other neuromotor and neuromuscular disorders.
SLP 604Augmentative and Alternative Communication3
A study of augmentative and alternative communication systems (AAC) for individuals with severe communication disorders. Students will gain mastery of knowledge and skills necessary for assessment and treatment of individuals who use AAC. Students will also gain operational competence and have hands on practice with a variety of AAC systems.
This course is a study of acquired, cognitive-based language disorders including traumatic brain injury, related cognitive communication sequelae, and dementia. Evidence-based assessment and treatment modalities with individuals who have cognitive communication disorders and/or deficits will be discussed and explored.
An introductory graduate-level course on autism spectrum disorder. It addresses characteristics of children and youth with autism spectrum disorder, trends and issues associated with autism spectrum disorder, and effective practices and strategies for structuring, managing and promoting social skill development and social interactions among learners with autism spectrum disorder.
Scientific, clinical, and professional issues in speech-language pathology are examined using a variety of formats that include student case presentations presented in a clinical rounds format, expert guest speakers and journal club. Oral presentation skills as well as analytical and clinical problem-solving skills are highlighted.
credits) Concurrent with the student internship placement, students will identify a topic of interest, relevance, and importance to the clinical practice of speech-language pathology. Students will be expected to write a critical appraisal of the topic they identify.
