Related Online Degrees & Career Pathways

Exploring a degree in psychology opens doors to many related career pathways, including the rapidly growing field of speech-language pathology. Many students interested in psychology also consider transitioning to speech therapy roles, which often require specialized certification and advanced degrees.

To practice as a speech-language pathologist (SLP) in the U.S., each state has unique requirements. For example, those seeking Virginia slp certification requirements must complete a master’s degree in speech-language pathology, supervised clinical experience, and pass the national Praxis exam. Similarly, Washington slp certification requirements emphasize both education and hands-on experience.

If you’re considering becoming a speech therapist in West Virginia or becoming a speech therapist in Wisconsin, you’ll also need to comply with state licensing processes, which typically include accredited graduate studies, a clinical fellowship, and continuing education. These related degree pathways offer rewarding opportunities for those passionate about communication sciences and patient care.
