The Department of Communication Sciences & Disorders, and Education of the Deaf offers an Associate of Science Degree in Sign Language Studies, a Bachelor of Science Degree in Educational Interpreting, and a Bachelor of Science Degree in Communication Sciences and Disorders, with Emphases in Pre-Audiology or Pre-Speech-Language Pathology.
These degrees provide the education and training necessary for individuals who wish to work in education, hospitals, clinics, governmental agencies, skilled nursing facilities, medical offices, and more.
The professions represented within the department seek to help children, youth, and adults with communication disabilities and differences that are either present at birth or acquired later in life. Curricula rich in biological and social sciences in conjunction with rigorous departmental courses in evaluation, treatment, teaching, and research lead our graduates to gainful employment and diverse career opportunities. The career path an individual takes will depend upon training and personal goals. Those who accept the challenge of these professions will find that the effort put forward to earn degrees will be rewarding.
The Associate of Science Degree in Sign Language Studies is a two year degree which is primarily designed for students who wish to continue their education beyond the associate degree level in the Educational Interpreting Program or for students who wish to obtain an interim degree before entering another major, such as Deaf Education. The Sign Language Studies degree focuses on American Sign Language skills through academic courses and labs designed to provide a small group setting to facilitate instructor feedback and guidance. Use the heading as a link to reach the curriculum for this degree.
The Bachelor of Science Degree in Educational Interpreting is designed to prepare students for employment as interpreters in elementary, secondary, and post-secondary educational programs. An associate degree in Sign Language Studies or its equivalent is required. Students are taught with a “hands on” approach as they learn about the Deaf culture, how to collaborate in a professional setting, and participate in field observations culminating with an interpreting internship. Public and private education programs, local and state public health units, institutions such as the Idaho, Montana, and Utah Schools for the Deaf and the Blind, and vocational rehabilitation agencies participate in affiliate service and training. Internship sites may require record of vaccinations and a police background check. Use the heading as a link to reach the curriculum for this degree.
The areas of Speech-Language Pathology and Audiology have foundations grounded in basic communicative behavior. Included in these degree emphases are the study of biological and social sciences, phonetics, acoustics, neurology, development of normal speech, language, and hearing abilities as well as deviations from normal communicative processes. Students are introduced to assessment and treatment procedures at the undergraduate level. The Bachelor of Science Degree emphases provide pre-professional instruction that prepares students to apply to graduate programs in either Speech-Language Pathology or Audiology. The undergraduate program offers both clinical and non-clinical tracks. Students who wish to pursue a master’s degree in Speech-Language Pathology or a clinical doctorate in Audiology (AuD) are strongly encouraged to complete the clinical track in consultation with their advisors.
Idaho State University has the distinction of offering the bachelor’s degree with emphasis in Pre-Speech-Language Pathology, as well as the Master of Science degree in Speech-Language Pathology, on both the Pocatello and Boise campuses. Many departmental classes are taught via distance learning technology, with clinical and academic faculty in both sites. Students should note that admission to graduate programs is competitive.
The combined bachelor’s and master’s programs in Speech-Language Pathology, and the bachelor’s and clinical doctorate programs in Audiology are designed to prepare students to meet the academic and clinical requirements for the Idaho Department of Education Certificate for Speech-Language Pathologist or Audiologist, state licensing, and the Certificate of Clinical Competence issued by the American Speech-Language and Hearing Association (ASHA). Both the graduate programs in Speech-Language Pathology and Audiology are accredited by the Council of Academic Accreditation of ASHA. Additional information about the graduate programs in Speech-Language Pathology and Audiology can be found in the Graduate Catalog, Kasiska College of Health Professions, Department of Communication Sciences & Disorders, and Education of the Deaf.
Admission to Junior Level Classes
Prospective students are expected to have a cumulative GPA of 3.0 or
better after completing 40 semester hours before registering for CSED
3321 and/or CSED 3330. Interested students with GPAs
above
2.75 may petition the department chair to enroll in junior level
courses through a letter and supporting documentation.

Preprofessional Coursework
Students with undergraduate degrees in disciplines
other than communication sciences and disorders must take a series of
courses
that are prerequisite to entering the Master's degree program. These courses are delivered in two
formats. The traditional Preprofessional
Program format involves 13 courses provided through on-campus classroom
instruction over the course of two semesters and a summer.
The Online Preprofessional Program (OPP) involves
delivery of 11 courses via totally online format, designed to provide
nontraditional students with a means of acquiring these courses. Note that the online courses require extra
fees, and
Each student is responsible for completing the
required coursework in the proper sequential order.
Required prerequisite courses must be completed
before the student can enroll in upper division departmental courses.
Transfer
students may submit petitions to the department for equivalent
recognition of
required courses. Students must maintain
a GPA of 2.25 and obtain a letter grade of “C” or better in
departmental courses
counting toward fulfillment of graduation requirements.
A grade of “D” in departmental courses will
not be counted toward satisfaction of requirements for the major. All
students
must meet with their advisors each semester before a computer block
will be
Practicum Standards
Students within the department may enroll in limited practicum
activities as seniors. Specified departmental course requirements must
be met before a student enrolls.
Clinical Services
The Idaho State University Speech-Language and Hearing Clinic on the
Pocatello Campus and
the Speech and Language Clinic on the Boise Center Campus offer a
variety of clinical training opportunities for students while providing
valuable services to the community. Among our audiological
services offered at the Pocatello campus are complete audiological and
vestibular testing, hearing aid evaluation, auditory training, aural
habilitation and rehabilitation, including services for individuals
with cochlear implants. The Speech and Language Clinics in
Pocatello and Boise offer evaluation and treatment of speech, language,
stuttering, voice, alternative and augmentative communication, and
speech-language problems associated with cerebral palsy, traumatic
brain injury, autism, cleft palate, and stroke.
Clients served in our clinics range in age from infancy to adulthood
and all clinical services are provided by experienced students under
the direction of ASHA certified clinical faculty.
Master of Science Degree in
Deaf
Education
Undergraduate students interested in obtaining a Master of Science
Degree in Deaf Education degree should check the undergraduate catalog
under the Department of Education for information regarding teacher
education programs. Upon completion of a bachelor’s degree,
the
individual may then apply to the graduate program to meet the
state’s criteria for Teacher Certification: Deaf
Education.
Additional information about this degree can be found in the Graduate
Catalog, Kasiska College of Health Professions, Department of
Communication Sciences & Disorders, and Education of the Deaf.
Accredited by the National Council of Accreditation of Teacher
Education, the Master of Science degree in Deaf Education also meets
the requirements for training in the state of Idaho and other states in
the region through reciprocal agreements. This degree
provides
future Deaf educators with the tools to work with Deaf and hard of
hearing students in elementary and secondary education.
