Communication Sciences and Disorders

The graduate program has experienced record numbers in both applications and enrollment.  Our enrollment has averaged 10-12 for several years.  But, with applications coming in at over six times the number of typical student slots, Dr. Baggs, the graduate advisor, indicated that it was time to take additional students for the 2011-2012 academic year.  The result was a cohort of 18 students from as far away as Michigan and California.  Dr. Baggs reports that applications for the upcoming academic year are almost double last year’s numbers with over 130 complete applicants.

This time next week, the ACU faculty, 40 undergraduates and 29 graduate students will be attending the Texas Speech-Language-Hearing Association Convention in San Antonio. Dr. Baggs and Dr. Barnett will be presenting research findings related to graduate admissions. The entire faculty and the second year graduate students will also be presenting their research during the poster sessions on Friday and Saturday. Annual University Day events will take place on Friday. Come find our table outside the Praxis Bowl area before the big competition! Hang around and watch our graduate students compete against other universities.
