Course summary

Work with people experiencing communication impairments and difficulties with eating, drinking and swallowing, from children who stammer to adults recovering from brain injuries.

Speech and language therapists (SLT) are privileged to work with people throughout their entire lifespan, from neonatal to end of life care.

As part of this course youll:

Gain a professional qualification as an SLT in three years

Learn to provide assessment and intervention for communication impairments and difficulties with eating, drinking and swallowing

Study a variety of subjects such as psychology, linguistics and speech pathology

Attend guest lectures from specialist clinicians and medics to ensure your learning is current and to expand your networks

Experience ongoing and block placements through a mixed placement model

We also offer the MSc Speech & Language Therapy course for applicants who already have a previous undergraduate degree in a related subject and want to fast-track their learning.

Building your future potential

As a student in the School of Humanities & Social Sciences, youll be encouraged to think about your future career right from the start of your learning journey. Information and advice about relevant future career options will be built into your course, including module options with live brief learning challenges.

Teaching & Learning

Independent study is a crucial part of learning at university and you will be required to undertake many hours of self-directed research and reading, and preparation and writing of assessments. Your course is delivered through a number of modules, which will help you to plan your time and establish a study routine. Outside of your lectures, workshops and tutorials, a range of support is available to assist with your independent study. Our subject-specific librarians will be on hand to direct you to the specialist learning and study-skill resources. Youll also be assigned an academic advisor to give you tailored feedback and support.

Career Prospects

The strong clinical focus of the course will help you make the transition to clinical practice. Indeed, the majority of our students find work in either speech and language therapy or a related field within 12 months of graduating. As a newly qualified speech and language therapist, you might be employed by the NHS and may work in a range of settings including hospitals, community clinics or education. Some therapists also work in the criminal justice system and others are in private practice.
