  • CMSD 100 - Introduction to Communication Disorders


    Credits: Three (3)
    This course will introduce normal speech, language, and hearing development, developmental disorders, and acquired disorders of speech and language in children and adults. Theories of etiology and examples of traditional intervention strategies are introduced for each disorder addressed. In addition, the potential impact of speech or language impairment on the social, emotional, and vocational aspects of a person’s lifespan is a focus.
  
  • CMSD 210 - Phonetics


    Credits: Three (3)
    Phonetics is designed to introduce students to the study of speech sounds, with an emphasis on American English. Participants will learn how American English speech sounds are produced and how to transcribe using the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA). Both broad and narrow transcription will be addressed. The clinical processes for articulation and phonological disorders will be discussed. Characteristics of regional and social dialects will be addressed. This course is required for CMSDmajors.
    Prerequisite: CMSD-100 or concurrent with CMSD 100
  
  • CMSD 220 - Speech and Hearing Science


    Credits: Three (3)
    This course will address the science behind assessment and treatment in the fields of speech-language pathology and audiology. Participants will apply the basic concepts underlying the production and analysis of speech sounds to clinical practice. This course is required for CMSD majors.
  
  • CMSD 310 - Anatomy & Physiology of Speech


    Credits: Three (3)
    This course will address anatomy, neuroanatomy, and physiology of the human speech mechanism. Course content includes upper body skeletal, muscular, respiratory, and nervous systems. The focus of the speech mechanism in relation to respiration, phonation, resonation, and articulation will be examined in depth as it relates to the field of communication sciences and disorders. This course is required for CMSD majors.
    Prerequisite: BIOL 101, BIOL 102
  
  • CMSD 330 - Language and Speech Acquisition


    Credits: Three (3)
    This course is designed to provide an overview of typical American English language development, including major American dialects. Child language is placed in the context of social, motor, and cognitive development from birth through adolescence. Emphasis is placed on the crucial relationship between language development and literacy acquisition. Participants use basic language observation and analysis techniques to explore phonology, syntax, morphology, semantics and pragmatics. This course is required for CMSD majors.
    Prerequisite: CMSD-210
  
  • CMSD 350 - Speech Development and Disorders


    Credits: Three (3)
    This course will provide participants with a scientific understanding of the nature of phonological and articulatory disorders. Assessment and treatment of speech sound disorders will be addressed to help participants apply this knowledge to clinical situations. The course will provide participants with the knowledge of the normal aspects of articulatory and phonological development and theories of phonological development. Identification of articulation and phonological disorders, how to interpret assessment findings, intervention approaches and facilitative strategies will be included as they relate to clinical practice. This course is required for CMSD majors.
    Prerequisite: CMSD-100, CMSD-210
