Course summary

As a speech and language therapist, youll work with adults and children who may have language, speech, fluency, voice, communication, or swallowing disorders. Youll identify problems and help people to improve their communication skills. On this three-year course, youll explore topics from the structure of language and how speech sounds are expressed, to anatomy, the psychology behind our development, and the effects of politics on the provision of speech and language therapy in the community. You wont simply learn the theories and research behind how we communicate and why people have difficulties in communicating, youll also learn the practical skills youll need. Youll study the techniques, skills and methods used to assess, analyse and manage clients, such as using boards with symbols that children can point to or swallowing tests for adults who have suffered a stroke to determine the treatment they need. Youll complete clinical placements in each year of study. Past placements have included working in a hospital with adults who have had strokes, special educational needs (SEN) provision for teenagers in a secondary school, and in community clinics.

Career prospects

Weve designed our three-year course to combine theory and practical sessions so that when you graduate, youre prepared to practice as a speech and language therapist in a modern, challenging environment. In addition to being at university, you will also complete clinical placements in every year of study, and youll spend time in a variety of settings, including hospitals, clinics, and schools.

The choice of possible career routes is diverse and after graduation, there are opportunities for work within the National Health Service, in charitable organisations, education, in the private sector, or overseas.

There are also a range of opportunities for postgraduate study and research. Some of our degree courses provide a range of practitioner options, and the nature of the units available can contribute to personal and professional development.
