Bachelor of Arts - Speech and Hearing Science

Speech and hearing science students will study the development and disorders of language, hearing and speech. Students will learn how anatomy, biology, psychology and other factors affect how people speak, hear and understand throughout their lifespan, as infants, children, adults and seniors. As students take required classes in acoustics (sounds for hearing and speech perceptions), audiology (hearing), speech-language pathology (speaking), and technical skills such as statistics, they can also choose to explore related areas such as sociology and linguistics.
