Program Overview

This course leads to a professional qualification to practise as a speech and language therapist. You’ll be able to work in a diverse range of settings, for example schools and hospitals, nurseries, clinics or the client’s home. You might also pursue a role in higher education and research.

Speech and language therapists provide treatment and care for children and adults who have difficulties with communicating, eating, drinking or swallowing. Therapists take a collaborative approach, working alongside the individual’s carer, teacher or family, as well as other professionals.

The course follows six main themes:
 

  1. Communication – linguistics, psychology and how this relates to speech and language pathology.

  2. Participation and Society – how the study of sociology and social and health psychology impact on speech and language therapy.

  3. Research Methods – develop the research skills essential to providing evidence-based health care.

  4. Biomedical Sciences – anatomy, physiology, audiology and neurology, and how to link them to speech and language pathology.

  5. Key Clinical Topics – develop your professional competence.

  6. Professional Practice – put your skills to work for a range of clients with communication impairments.
