Internships in SLP

[smartypants14]

Hi Everyone,

  Im beginning to look at ways at gaining more experience just in case. Does anyone have any information on any internships undergrads can do? I looked up an agency, but their application is already closed. Boo.

 

Thanks!

Did you look into becoming an SLPA?

I believe you need to have a bachelor's degree completed for that?

 

Also what was the internship you said was closed?

 

I'd like to know about internships in SLP for undergrads too.

Everyone I know who did an internship as an undergrad either arranged it through their school's SLP department or by calling private practices until they were able to make something happen. Good luck!

I currently have an internship assisting with research at the University of Pittsburgh Voice Center. I started in October 2013 and will be there until I begin grad school in August. I honestly just put my all into bolstering my resume for grad school. I am from the Pittsburgh area and called a lot of agencies/support groups before my internship occurred. I would suggest finding something you enjoy in the field (neuro/voice/educational setting) and just keep researching and calling agencies until something works out. Good luck!
