Speech pathology is a growing profession, and with a shortage of qualified speech pathologists in Australia, new graduates have excellent career prospects and opportunities to specialize and diversify. This course aims to qualify students as a speech pathologist for work in Australia. Theoretical studies cover the assessment, diagnosis, treatment and provision of management and advocacy services to people with communication or swallowing disorders, who may have difficulties in speech, language, voice, fluency, and reading and spelling. Students will also gain clinical experience by working on speech pathology cases through various formats.
