Audiology Emphasis Elective Options: Min 8 Credits
Language Options:
Option 1: Sign Language
If the student chooses the Language option, the student must complete
at least four semesters of language coursework.
The reasoning behind this is to gain a minimum level of proficiency or
skill. If the student chooses the ASL option they
do not have to take the CSED 2227 or 2228 series. They substitute the ASL
I and ASL II for these courses. Note: Any
required language lab courses must also be taken.
