Why choose this course?

Designed to reflect local and national workforce demands, our person-centered curriculum is underpinned by evidence and is reflective of contemporary speech and language therapy practice, both nationally and internationally. In an environment of reflection and research awareness, the MSci programme will enable you to develop into an autonomous professional who is able to initiate and respond to change in a wide variety of settings. From year one and throughout the programme you will combine the study of theoretical knowledge with clinical practice to help you link the different domains of knowledge, skills, values and behaviours to specific clinical contexts. Practice-based learning is embedded throughout the course and takes place in a range of health, education, social and third sector care settings.
