The Midwestern University (Arizona) Speech-Language Pathology Program’s mission is to mentor intellectually curious and compassionate students to be effective, reflective, and collaborative Speech-Language Pathologist's serving their communities. The Program faculty work collaboratively in a health-oriented university to integrate academic teaching and diverse clinical experiences to develop effective clinicians through: interprofessional practice; innovative technology experiences; clinical simulation opportunities; culturally and linguistically diverse clinical experiences; scholarly activity; individualized, intentional mentorship; comprehensive and dynamic instruction; and clinical, academic and community partnership.
The College of Health Sciences' Speech-Language Pathology Program pairs you with student-centered curriculum and faculty mentors to help you develop skills in working with adults and children with communication and swallowing disorders. As a speech-language pathologist, you will need not only knowledge of the field, but also critical thinking, problem solving and self-confidence. We work with you to enhance those traits so that you can become an empathetic, compassionate, patient-centered professional on tomorrow's healthcare team.
