For many Speech Language Pathology students, the Master
of Science is a terminal degree in that they do not
plan to pursue further graduate work as a Ph.D. student.
Usually, the students are seeking a graduate degree
that will prepare them to provide independent clinical
services in Speech-Language Pathology. The clinical
M.S. programs in Speech-Language Pathology at Purdue
are designed so that students can meet all academic,
clinical certification, licensure, and credentialing
requirements of the American Speech-Language Hearing
Association (ASHA), the Indiana Speech-Language Pathology
and Audiology Board (ISLPAB), and the School Services
Standard License for Speech, Language, and Hearing Clinicians
and Educational Audiologists issued by the Indiana Department
of Education.
It is possible to obtain a non-clinical Master of Science
degree in Speech Science at Purdue University. Such
a program may be appropriate for students with a primary
interest in Speech Science or Linguistics, for example.
Those students would not be concerned with meeting clinical
certification requirements or clinical practicum experiences.
