Student Outcome Data for the Department of Communication Sciences and Disorders

We pride ourselves on preparing our students for their futures.

Student Outcome Data

Student outcome data helps the Department of CSD make sure that we are properly preparing our students for their educational and professional futures. 

This data can also help prospective students know just how committed we are to their future with us. 

We keep track of student timeliness to make sure that they graduate on time. And we also keep track of student's pass rates for the Speech Language Pathology Praxis Examination, a requirement for both the ASHA Certificate of Clinical Competence in Speech-Language Pathology and State Professional Licensure.
