<p>The Department of Communication Sciences and Disorders (COMDIS) is one of eight departments in the College of Education and Professional Studies (COEPS). The department delivers two related programs but with very different missions. First, the department provides undergraduate students with foundational knowledge required for graduate study in speech-language pathology and audiology, or careers in allied health, human services, or education. Undergraduate students can complete their bachelor's degree <a href="/x113923.xml">in person</a> or <a href="/online/bachelors/communication-science-and-disorders">online</a>. Second, the department provides a comprehensive academic and clinical education program for <a href="https://www.uww.edu/coeps/academics/communication-sciences-disorders-ms">graduate</a> students including on-campus and off-site clinical experiences that culminate in the requisite Master's degree for practice as a state licensed and ASHA certified speech-language pathologist. We also offer an <a href="https://www.uww.edu/coeps/comdis/prospective---postbacc" target="_blank" rel="noopener">online postbaccalaureate certificate</a>, designed specifically for students who have earned a bachelor’s degree in any discipline other than communication sciences and disorders. High school students can explore the field of speech language pathology and audiology at UW-Whitewater as a part of the <a href="/dual-enrollment/early-college-credit-program">early college credit program</a>. COMDIS 270 Introduction to Human Communication and Disorders provides an overview of communicative disorders across the lifespan and is offered online during the summer and fall terms.</p> False Arrow
