About the Event:

Speech Language Pathology is a profession that has grown in both scope, and availability in the US since it’s earliest years. This presentation will describe the training involved in becoming a Speech Language Pathologist, as well as the opportunities, settings and responsibilities for this healthcare profession in the US.  The profession of Speech Language Pathology in China is in its infancy but is growing. The way it is evolving is in some ways similar to the profession’s growth in the US, but in other ways it is very different. Some of the opportunities, and challenges for the profession in China will be explored.

This event is co-sponsored by the GW Department of East Asian Languages & Literatures, and the East Asia National Resource Center.
