The Department of Communication Disorders at NMSU offers a Master's degree in Speech-Language Pathology which meets the educational requirements for certification by the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA) as well as the educational requirements for state licensure. Students entering the graduate program with an undergraduate major in Communication Disorders can expect to complete the program in two years (including the summer between the two years) and be awarded a Masters of Arts in Communication Disorders with a specialization in Speech-Language Pathology. To complete this course of study, each student is expected to meet the program's academic and clinical competency criteria which are aligned with the requirements of state and national certifying bodies for licensure and clinical certification. The graduate program for students without a background in Communication Disorders is generally one year longer because one year of leveling is required.
