Course Overview
Speech and language therapists work alongside children and adults who have difficulties with speech, language, communication, feeding, and/or swallowing. Through holistic assessment and management, speech and language therapists collaborate with the individual, their family, and/or their carer to provide person-centered care that encompasses health, wellbeing, participation, and quality of life.
The course has been co-developed by practicing speech and language therapists with extensive clinical experience.
Service users and carers, who are part of the Universitys Public Partnership Group, have contributed and will continue to be involved in developing your clinical and professional capabilities through planning and assisting with teaching and simulation sessions.
Each module is based on a lifespan approach that integrates theory with practical skills in a balanced mix across both pediatrics and adults.
Placements will incorporate all age groups in a variety of contexts and environments including education, hospitals, and clinics, as well as in the University's Telehealth program.
The course emphasizes life-long transferable skills for graduates to implement in a variety of related career pathways such as clinical, research, leadership, and education.
