The Master of Science program in Speech-Language Pathology features a specialized Bilingual English-Spanish track (BIES). This concentration equips Spanish-proficient speech-language pathologists with skills to assess and treat communication disorders in Spanish-speaking and bilingual (Spanish-English) individuals. With Latinos representing the most rapidly expanding ethnic group in the U.S., demand for bilingual speech-language professionals continues to surge. The BIES specialization delivers comprehensive training to develop skilled bilingual practitioners. Marquette University graduates earning both their master's degree and BIES specialization discover abundant career prospects across the country, often commanding premium salaries due to their specialized expertise. BIES program participants must demonstrate mastery in key areas including language fluency, understanding of typical development, evaluation and treatment techniques, and cultural awareness.
