MSCI SPEECH AND LANGUAGE THERAPY

Our four year MSci in Speech and Language Therapy will uniquely qualify you to provide speech, language, communication and eating, drinking and swallowing therapies in a variety of contexts and settings, as well as, developing postgraduate level knowledge and skills in research, leadership, education or advanced clinical practice, relevant for employment in a rapidly changing health and social care sector. 

ABOUT
In addition to sharing our innovative and integrative Problem Based Learning curriculum with our BSc Speech and Language Therapy programme in years one to three, the fourth year of our MSci in Speech and Language Therapy will give you the opportunity to develop higher level knowledge and skills on a pathway of your choice (leadership, research, education or clinical*). 

Problem based learning (PBL) will enable you to not only develop team work, negotiation and leadership skills, but also contextualise academic theory and clinical reasoning within a wide range of client groups as a reflection of real life working practices.   

From the beginning of this programme you will discover how the core academic areas of human biology, linguistics, phonetics and psychology relate to a wide range of client groups, including children with developmental speech and language disorders, individuals with learning disabilities, and adults with acquired communication and eating, drinking and swallowing difficulties.  

You gain practical experience throughout the course. Year one will enhance your interpersonal and communication skills through our conversation partner (adult and child) placements. Over years two and three you develop your clinical skills through intensive two eight week block placements under the supervision of qualified clinicians in practice. In the fourth year you will have advanced practical, hands on experience through placement or internships in your elective module to complement postgraduate level theoretical learning in your chosen pathway.  

All clinical competencies, core skills and behaviours will have been acquired by the end of the third year, though registration with HCPC will only be possible after graduation.
