Frequently Asked Questions
Outcomes
After graduation, can I get a job as an audiologist or speech-language pathologist with my bachelor’s degree?
No, a graduate degree is entry-level for both career fields. Speech-language pathology requires a master’s level degree and audiology requires a doctoral degree (AuD). Aspiring AuDs and SLPs must complete their graduate programs and then pass a national test and complete a Clinical Fellowship Year to be certified by the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA) to obtain a state license to practice speech-language pathology or audiology.
