Message from our Chair

Your interest in our Department of Communication Disorders is deeply appreciated.  We have been a part of the fabric of Auburn University since the Speech and Hearing Clinic opened in 1947.  Our graduate programs in audiology and in speech-language pathology were the third in the nation to be accredited — a tradition we continue to this day.  Come join the Auburn family!

Programs in the Department of Communication Disorders consistently are ranked high by the publication, U.S. News & World Report.  We are composed of two individually accredited graduate programs; the Doctor of Audiology (Au.D.) and the Master's degree emphasizing Speech-Language Pathology (either the M.S. in Communication Disorders thesis option or the M.C.D. in Communication Disorders non-thesis option).  Additionally we offer the pre-professional undergraduate Bachelor of Science degree in Communication Disorders (B.S.) which is an excellent program in preparation of graduate study.

Auburn University is a large institution nestled in a small town with a high quality of life.  The town and gown provide a nurturing environment for students and this is magnified in the clinical education of our students.  We operate the on-site AU Speech and Hearing Clinic and also provide off-site practicum experiences.

Give us a look on these web pages and schedule a campus visit.  I'm confident you will fall in love with all we have to offer!

War Eagle,
