Bachelor's Degree
Graduate students who have an undergraduate degree in Communication Disorders typically finish the program in two years, earning a Master of Arts in Communication Disorders with a Speech-Language Pathology specialization. Those without this background usually require an additional year due to necessary leveling coursework. Admission to graduate Communication Disorders courses is exclusive to students accepted into the program. Successful completion requires meeting both academic and clinical competency standards, which align with state and national certification requirements for licensure. For certification details, consult the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA) and the New Mexico Regulations & Licensing Department.
