Careers in CSD

THINK CSD IS JUST WORKING WITH KIDS IN SCHOOLS? THINK AGAIN.

Most guys never consider careers in speech-language pathology or audiology because they think it’s all flashcards and elementary schools.

Here’s what it actually looks like:

You could be working with an NFL player who took a brutal hit and needs to relearn how to speak. Or designing the next generation of hearing aids. Or helping a stroke survivor eat solid food again. Or consulting with law enforcement on voice identification. Or running your own practice and calling your own shots.

Why Men Who Choose CSD Don’t Regret It

Every day is completely different. One audiologist called it “the perfect environment for those who need variety and don't want to get into a rut.”

The tech is legitimately cool. Brain imaging, cochlear implants, AI-powered speech devices, acoustic analysis tools. As good as any video game!

You’re helping people. But not in a sitting-around-talking-about-feelings way. You’re solving real physical problems with tangible results.

Job security is unbeatable. There are 35,000 open positions nationwide. You’ll have options wherever you want to live.

The money’s solid. $60K-$100K+ depending on specialty and setting. No medical school debt required.

The Catch (Because There's Always a Catch):

You need grad school, and most programs require good GPAs from undergrad. That’s why we’re telling you now—before you’re scrambling junior year of college realizing you can’t get in.
