The Clinical Field Placement Team (CFPT) serves as the liaison between the Department of Communicative Sciences and Disorders (CSD) the graduate student, and the field placement supervisor. The Clinical Field Placement Team consists of speech-language pathologists, health care professionals, and administrators who are available to assist you with any questions or concerns regarding the field placement experience.
It is advised that student concerns be addressed immediately to ensure a positive field placement experience for both student and supervisor. Early remediation opportunities increase student chances for success in field placement.
