The Council on Academic Accreditation accredits the master's (M.S.) education program in speech-language pathology at Mississippi University for Women  in Audiology and Speech-Language Pathology (CAA)  of the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association.

The Speech-Language Pathology Graduate Program makes every effort to enrol and prepare students to become competent speech-language pathologists. The program requires rigorous academic training and intense clinical preparation. To acquire the knowledge and skills necessary for the practice of speech-language pathology, individuals must have knowledge, skills, and attributes in five areas to fulfil the essential functions of graduate education. These five areas are communication, motor, intellectual-cognitive, sensory-observational, and behavioural-social. These knowledge areas, skills, and attributes enable a student to fulfill the essential functions of graduate student training programs and meet graduate and professional requirements as measured by state licensure and national certification. Many of these skills can be learned and developed during the graduate program through coursework and clinical experience.
