Does hands-on clinical experience as an undergraduate matter? Hannah Lemmon's graduate school experience in speech-language pathology offers a resounding "Yes!"
The
2017
graduate
said
that
as
an
incoming
新澳門六合彩
student
majoring
in
communication
sciences
and
disorders
she
didn't
fully
comprehend
the
value
of
being
in
a
program
that
was
intense,
rigorous
and
time
consuming.
Little did Lemmon know that the challenges she faced at the undergraduate level would set her up for success in graduate school.
Lemmon is one of 33 students studying for a master's degree in speech-language pathology at the University of South Carolina. Just two of those students had previous clinical experience entering the program, Lemmon being one of them. Her experience and expertise set her apart as a leader among her classmates.
"I am so proud and incredibly lucky to have been a student in 新澳門六合彩's communication sciences and disorders program," said Lemmon. "I've been through the pressures of choosing an undergraduate school as well as the stress of having to get into graduate school. I want other students who are aspiring to pursue a career in the competitive and challenging field of speech-language pathology or audiology to have the same valuable opportunities I did at 新澳門六合彩 because most undergraduate institutions do not offer them."
