Facilities

The ASU Department of Speech and Hearing Science moved to a new, expansive state-of-the-art facility in Lattie F. Coor Hall in January 2004. The substantially increased laboratory and clinical space has enabled us to expand our training opportunities for students, and to fully capitalize on our ability to provide students with high technology teaching, research and clinical facilities.
