Hello and Welcome to the Department of Communication Disorders. Our goal is to educate and train the best speech-language pathologists possible! The program here in San Marcos is an exciting one, with great faculty and terrific facilities.

We have the latest technology, modern classrooms and a state-of-the-art clinic on campus. We see individuals of all ages with many different types of communication disorders, including children on the autism spectrum, and those with reading/writing problems. We also have a very strong bilingual track at the graduate level which includes specialized classes and on- and off-campus experiences with monolingual Spanish and bilingual (English-Spanish) clients. In addition, we have over 60 off-campus clinical sites in Central Texas and as far south as the valley where our graduate students expand their clinical knowledge.

We offer an undergraduate BSCDIS degree in Communication Disorders and the MA/MSCDIS degree in speech-language pathology. Currently, we have about 70 undergraduate students in the junior/senior sequence and 38 graduate students. We also take about 10 students every year who have undergraduate degrees in a field other than Communication Disorders and are doing background work towards graduate school. There are several scholarships and graduate-assistant positions available to graduate students to help financially. We look forward to hearing from you and helping you achieve your goal of becoming a speech-language pathologist.
