Pediatric Speech Language Pathology Training Program

The pediatric speech and language pathology training program is for graduate students seeking a Master of Science in Speech and Language Pathology (MS-SLP). Trainees participate in clinical rotations at the Mailman Center for Child Development and the Debbie School. These rotations focus on the communication needs of infants, toddlers, and school-aged children. Trainees learn evaluation administration and report writing skills, evidence-based therapy (including early intervention skills), and augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) training. Trainees gain experience with a variety of neurodevelopmental disorders, including (but not limited to) developmental delays, autism spectrum disorders, intellectual disabilities, and deaf & hard of hearing. Trainees also participate in interdisciplinary clinics, including Cleft-Lip and Palate Clinic, Interdisciplinary Developmental Evaluation Services (IDES) Clinic, and Assistive Technology (AT) Clinic.
