The Kent CORE coursework and the required courses for the SPA major on the GPS Roadmap (PDF) are required for successful completion of the undergraduate degree in SPA. Be aware that the American Speech Language Hearing Association requires minimum coursework in order to be eligible for clinical certification.
See ASHA Standard IV-A below
“The applicant must have demonstrated knowledge of the biological sciences, physical sciences, statistics, and the social/behavioral sciences.
Implementation: Acceptable courses in biological sciences should emphasize a content area related to human or animal sciences (e.g., biology, human anatomy and physiology, neuroanatomy and neurophysiology, human genetics, veterinary science). Acceptable courses in physical sciences should include physics or chemistry. Acceptable courses in social/behavioral sciences should include psychology, sociology, anthropology, or public health. A stand-alone course in statistics is required. Research methodology courses in communication sciences and disorders (CSD) may not be used to satisfy the statistics requirement. A course in biological and physical sciences specifically related to CSD may not be applied for certification purposes to this category unless the course fulfills a university requirement in one of these areas.”
If you have any questions at all about undergraduate courses needed to meet the requirements, please ask your SPA advisor as soon as possible.
