Department of Audiology, Speech-Language Pathology and Deaf Studies

Combined Major in Deaf Studies and Speech-Language Pathology & Audiology

Speech-Language Pathology and Audiology (SPPA) is a screened major; students wanting to combine it with the DFST major need to complete the pre-major requirements (PSPA) for the Speech-Language Pathology and Audiology major and then apply for full admission into SPPA. Because the requirements of the SPPA major are relatively fixed, students are encouraged to make the decision to complete the combined DFST-SPPA major in the freshman year. Students who delay  the start of either major will likely require additional semesters to graduate. Students who are not admitted into the SPPA major after the pre-major year can continue in DFST since it is not screened. In addition to Core Curriculum requirements, students admitted to this option must complete 100-101 units with a grade equivalent of 2.00 or higher. For more information on admission into the SPPA major, please link to the web pages for the undergraduate major in Speech-Language Pathology and Audiology. Students must separately declare both majors within the department and meet with program advisors from each major.
