Descriptions
CSCD-UE.0008
Anatomy and Physiology of
Speech and Hearing
Mechanisms
A comprehensive study of the anatomical, physiological, bases of speech
production, and perception. The structures and mechanics of respiration,
fountain, resonation, articulation, and speech perception are studied.
CSCD-UE.0009
Neuroanatomy and Physiology
of Communication
A comprehensive study of the neurological bases of speech and language
production, speech and language perception, and swallowing. The
neurological basis of language, respiration, phonation, resonation,
articulation, speech perception, and swallowing are studied.
CSCD-UE.0061
Phonetics and Phonemics
A study of the production, description, and classification of speech
sounds; English sounds, stress, and intonation; phonemes and allophones,
ear training, phonetic and phonemic transcription.
CSCD-UE.0402
Acoustic Phonetics
A broad-based study of acoustic phonetics including acoustic theory and
measurement; distinctive feature systems; integration of physiologic and
perceptual characteristics with concomitant acoustic features.
CSCD-UE.1101
Introduction to Articulation
Disorders
An introduction to the study of articulation problems associated with
functional and organic disturbances. Basic diagnostic and therapeutic
procedures for children and adults.
Principles and techniques of audiology evaluation and management of
hearing impaired infants and children. Both personal and assistive
amplification listening systems are covered. Speech reading and auditory
training techniques. Educational and communicative options for children
of different ages with different types and degrees of hearing loss. The
cochlear implant: implications for rehabilitation and education of
profoundly hearing-impaired children are included.
Principles and techniques of pure tone and speech audiometer;
interpretation of ideograms; consideration of etiologies and auditory
characteristics of major types of hearing impairment.
CSCD-UE.1205
Audiology Intervention
Strategies Across the Lifespan*
CSCD-UE.1230
Introduction to Audiology
CSCD-UE.1601
Language Development in PreSchool Years
Focuses on research on normal language acquisition and development
with reference to three oral language components: form, content, and use.
Implications for facilitation of language in children delayed in language
development are discussed.
Science of Language
Provides an overview of the scientific study of the human language
faculty, focusing on the cognitive & neural processing mechanisms that
underlie linguistic knowledge & use. We describe contemporary
approaches to delineating levels of language structure & review various
scientific methodologies used to study language. Topics include language
knowledge & use as well as language change & variation. Liberal Arts
Core/CORE Equivalent - satisfies the requirement for Natural Sciences

ASHA Course
Descriptions
Biological Science
Acceptable courses in biological sciences should emphasize a
content area related to human or animal sciences (e.g., biology,
human anatomy and physiology, neuroanatomy and
neurophysiology, human genetics, veterinary science).
Physical Science
Course work in physical sciences should include physics or
chemistry.
Statistics
Acceptable courses include any college-level, stand-alone statistics
course that is computational versus remedial, historical, or
methodological in nature.
Social and Behavioral Science
Acceptable courses in social/behavioral sciences should include
psychology, sociology, anthropology, or public health.
Foreign Language
A minimum of 3-credits of course work in a language other
English must be completed. In addition to foreign languages,
American Sign Language can fulfill this requirement.
The combination of the biological science, physical science, statistics, and social/behavioral science must equate to a minimum of 12-credits. Research
methodology courses in communication sciences and disorders (CSD) may not be used to satisfy the statistics requirement. Courses in biological and physical
sciences specifically related to communication sciences and disorders (CSD) may not be applied for certification purposes to this category unless the course fulfills
a university requirement in one of these areas. In addition to transcript credit, applicants may be required by their graduate program to provide further evidence of
meeting this requirement.
