Speech and hearing sciences is concerned with the scientific study of human auditory-verbal communication with reference to disorders involving speech, language and hearing. The emphasis of the department is to provide an educational and research setting where students may learn models and theories of normal communicative function, and appropriate rationale, techniques and procedures for the evaluation and management of people with speech, language, and hearing disorders. In addition to classroom instruction in the areas of normal and disordered communication, the department maintains a clinical facility for students to acquire practical experience through clinical services offered to clients by the UNT Speech and Hearing Center. The primary goal of the Department of Speech and Hearing Sciences is to prepare students to work professionally with communicatively handicapped individuals. The department provides course work, laboratory training, and clinical practicum experiences that enable students to satisfy the educational and clinical requirements for national professional certification and state licensure in speech-language pathology, audiology, or both. A second and equally important mission of the department is the professional development of the discipline through research and clinical services.

Clinical Services Speech-Language Pathology The University of North Texas Speech and Hearing Center provides state-of-the-art diagnostic and treatment services for persons who have speech and language needs. Clients range in age from eighteen months to eighty years and reflect a diversity of speech, language, and voice disorders. To evaluate clients' communication abilities and needs, speech-language pathologists certified by the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association and licensed by the State of Texas team with student clinicians to administer nationally recognized speech and language tests. The diagnostic team also has access to the latest equipment and technologies for identification of voice and swallowing disorders. The Center offers both individual and group therapy sessions. The one-on-one interaction of the individual approach provides clients with intensive treatment tailored to their specific needs. Groups afford clients opportunities to achieve therapy goals in a naturalistic setting while interacting with people with similar communication disorders. The Center has several exciting group programs including a preschool for children with language impairments, a group for adults who have communication disorders resulting from stroke or head injury, and accent-reduction groups for non-native speakers of English.
