CDS策略计划 2023 - 2026 [pdf]

The department identified four priorities and goals, within a transformative framework that aligns with the college and university strategic plans:

1. Develop innovative programs to provide more access pathways for diverse students to enter speech-language pathology and audiology.
2. Update undergraduate and graduate curriculum to include Interprofessional 教育 (IPE), Interprofessional Practice (IPP) and 多样性-Equity-Inclusion-Social Justice (DEIJ) as 焦点 areas for excellence across academic and clinical education.
3. Increase the number and diversity of tenured/tenure-track faculty to support new program/curriculum development and the anticipated increase in student enrollment.
4. Upgrade department facilities and infrastructure (i.e.(技术、设备) in the on-campus clinic, the Kay Armstead Center for Communicative Disorders, to support cd中的变革教育.

The implementation of the strategic plan will be guided by the Department Chair, Program Director/Coordinator, Director of Clinical 教育 and department committees. 年度 evaluation of objectives and progress will be reviewed in faculty meetings. 评价 results and updates will be shared with college leadership, faculty, students, staff, alumni, and other interested parties accordingly.
