    This document provides an introduction to Communication Sciences and Disorders (CSD). It discusses key topics including definitions of impairment, disability, and disorder. CSD is the study of human communication processes and breakdowns in those processes. It involves assessing and assisting individuals with communication differences and disorders. The field includes speech, language and hearing sciences as well as audiology and speech language pathology. While CSD is relatively new, its components have longer histories dating back to the 1920s. Professional organizations like ASHA help establish standards and provide accreditation.
