This pilot study explored the linguistic attitudes, knowledge, and beliefs of undergraduate majors in speech-language pathology (SLP) and the role an interest in linguistics played in their choice of the SLP major. Fifteen undergraduate students declared as SLP majors participated in this mixed-methods study. Participants responded to a survey and open-ended questions measuring their knowledge about and interest in linguistics; they also wrote a narrative essay describing their decision to major in SLP. Results showed that most participants were interested in linguistics and expressed a belief that knowledge of linguistics would be important in their work as SLPs, but they demonstrated limited linguistic knowledge and did not include an interest in linguistics as a major influence in their choice to major in SLP. Participants’ responses indicated that personal interests, quality of life concerns, and the constraints of other career choices—possibly aligned with societal norms and expectations related to gender and ethnicity—intersected as factors that led to the career choice of SLP. Results are of importance to those involved in the design and implementation of undergraduate programs in speechlanguage pathology, as well as those wishing to recruit students, including minority and male students, to the field of SLP.
