Online Speech Pathology Degrees

Speech pathologists work in both clinical and therapeutic settings, diagnosing and treating people with communication disorders. Some opt to work as university lecturers or in communications research. To become a practicing speech pathologist in the U.S., you need at least a master's degree and state certification. If you have more limited time due to family or job commitments, you can take your degree online. Many colleges offer speech pathology through online learning programs.
