The Department of Communication Sciences
Mission Statement

The Department of Communication Sciences prepares undergraduate and graduate students to demonstrate knowledge of the science of human language as an abstract system of communication as well as the anatomical and physiological bases that enable us to understand and produce language. Central to this education is knowledge of the forms and contexts of human language across the lifespan and across culturally and linguistically diverse populations. Mastery of this core knowledge provides a foundation for advanced study in a variety of disciplines. Graduate students in Speech-Language Pathology develop scientifically, clinically, and culturally appropriate competencies in the prevention, assessment, and treatment of communication disorders. Graduate students in Linguistics develop skills of analytical reasoning and argumentation in the major components of linguistic theory.
