Overview

Speech pathologists study, diagnose and treat communication and swallowing disorders, including difficulties with speech, language, fluency and voice. Students will work with people who have difficulty communicating because of developmental delays, stroke, brain injuries, learning disability, intellectual disability, cerebral palsy, dementia and hearing loss, as well as other difficulties that can affect speech and language. People who experience difficulties swallowing food and drink safely can also be helped by a speech pathologist. Throughout the course students will develop knowledge and core practical skills in anatomy and neurophysiology behind communication and swallowing impairments, science of speech and hearing, linguistics, language and healthcare. They will also learn how to identify and implement appropriate therapeutic treatments and management options. They will study foundation units in year 1 and 2 and specialise in one of two streams in year 3 and 4: Professional and Research. Both streams enable them to work as a Speech Pathologist in Australia. The Professional stream offers an honours project allowing them to pursue speech pathology interests in health or education disciplines. The Research stream also offers a research project in health or education disciplines, however eligibility for entry requires a high grade pass average (GPA). The clinical practice placement throughout the program will provide valuable and relevant workplace experience. Our on campus and blended learning approach through face-to-face delivery in Berwick, and face-to-face and flexible delivery in Ballarat and Gippsland, offer tutorials, online engagement activities and practical learning. Our students have access to equitable support, facilities and resources across all delivery locations, ensuring the best experience no matter where they choose to study with us. As a Speech Pathologist, they may work as a clinician, educator, researcher, policy advisor, manager, advocate or consultant in a variety of industries including government and non-government organisations, education, health, welfare, policy development, community-based organisations and private practice.
