Advising Notes
1. CR/NC grading is not permitted for CSDS majors for any coursework required in the major, with the exception of clinical courses. (See course descriptions.)
2. General Education and elective units may be used toward a double major or minor. Consult the appropriate department chair, program coordinator, or faculty advisor for further information.
3. Students in CSDS 110, 162, 163, 164, and other clinical, internship, and student teaching courses are required to show health certification that they are free from tuberculosis and rubella, and to purchase student clinic
malpractice insurance for the clinical courses (see the University Speech and Hearing Clinic director for details).
4. PSYCH 101 is a required credential course that can also be used as an undergraduate elective.
5. A statistics course is a prerequisite to CSDS 200, which is typically taken the first semester of graduate work. It is recommended that students take statistics as an undergraduate elective prior to applying to graduate school.
