Speech-Language Pathologist

Speech-Language Pathology (SLPs) is a healthcare career focused on helping individuals improve communication, swallowing, and cognitive-communication skills (the brain processes involved in thinking, understanding, and communicating with others) across the lifespan. SLPs work with children with speech delays, adults recovering from strokes or injuries, and individuals with developmental or acquired disorders. Employment in this field is projected to grow 16% by 2034 (U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics). If you are skilled in both science and empathy, and motivated by a career that helps people find their voice, regain independence, and connect with others, Speech-Language Pathology offers purpose in every conversation.
