Welcome
The
Department of Communication Sciences & Disorders is pleased to announce that
we have moved to a new location approximately 2 miles from the main campus at
1515 Broad Street in Bloomfield. This
beautiful new 40,000 square foot facility houses our faculty and staff
offices, ten classrooms and seminar rooms and ten research laboratories for
faculty and students in the audiology doctoral and speech-language pathology
masters programs. In addition, there
is a state-of-the-art Center for Audiology
& Speech-Language Pathology. The center includes two sound suites for
diagnostic audiology testing as well as rooms dedicated to evoked potentials
testing, vestibular testing and fitting of hearing aids and other assistive
devices. There are also ten individual rooms for speech and language therapy
and four group therapy rooms equipped with streaming digital video to capture
each session and enable clinical staff to observe therapy remotely. We invite you to visit us in our new home
and take advantage of our academic programs and clinical services.
The
Department of Communication Sciences & Disorders was first established in
1969, as the Department of Speech Pathology and Audiology. From 1969 to the
present, the Department has developed and offered programs that reflect
growth, specialization, and commitment to helping professionals and
individuals with speech, language, and hearing disorders. The
Department's programs are designed to provide basic and advanced professional
preparation, with a strong commitment to theoretical and research foundations
of clinical intervention. The Department offers a master's degree in Speech-Language Pathology and doctoral

The
Clinical Doctoral program in Audiology (ScD) and Master of Arts (MA) program
in Speech-Language Pathology at Montclair State University are accredited by
the Council
on Academic Accreditation (CAA).
