Our Mission

We are a learning community in which faculty and students support each other's learning across the lifespan. Our department mission is to educate students to the highest levels of professionalism, consistent with ASHA and Northeastern University accreditation standards and Massachusetts licensure requirements; to provide them with a multi-disciplinary, and practice-oriented education in our urban university environment; to provide them with research experiences based on the highest standards of scientific knowledge; to provide them with clinical experiences with clients and families from a diverse population base using an evidence-informed practice approach; to evaluate their progress using both formative and summative assessment measures.
Our faculty will engage in continuous learning both inside and outside the department to be current in recent research and to contribute to that knowledge base. They will, as appropriate, use, develop and address in their teaching, technology that improves the hearing, communication, respiration and swallowing skills of individuals at a variety of age and skill levels.
