Your Guide to the Communication Disorders and Sciences (CDS) Major

from The Look No Feather Podcast Hosted by University of Oregon College of Education

In this episode, we talk with Dr. Samantha Shune, Associate Professor, Interim Program Director for Communication Disorders and Sciences (CDS) as a whole and Director of Undergraduate Studies for CDS, about the major and career paths in speech-language pathology and audiology. Dr. Shune shares her journey into the field, explains the CDS 4+1 program, and discusses how the major prepares students for graduate school. We also explore observation hours, career opportunities with or without a graduate degree, and tips for choosing a minor or second major and gaining extracurricular experience to help students reach their academic and career goals.
