Speech and Language Therapy
Summary

As a speech and language therapist, you’ll work with adults and children who may have language, speech, communication, stammering, voice, or swallowing needs. You’ll work with clients to identify their communication needs and support them to communicate more confidently and comfortably. 

On this three-year course, you’ll 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 won’t simply learn the theories and research behind how we communicate and why people have difficulties in communicating, you’ll also learn the practical skills you’ll need.

You’ll 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 assessments for adults who have had a stroke to determine the therapy they need. 

You’ll 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.
