B.Sc.(Clin. Lang.) Honours (Level 8) - Clinical Speech and Language Studies

The ability to speak and write, to listen and learn, to be understood - abilities that are fundamental to human communication and interaction - can be impaired by a wide range of conditions, from stroke to cerebral palsy, hearing impairment, learning disabilities, developmental delays, and autism. Speech and Language Therapists work with people of all ages and assess, diagnose and treat individuals with a variety of communication and swallowing disorders. Since communication and swallowing difficulties affect every aspect of a person's life, the work of the speech and language therapist is multi-faceted, and therapists work in a variety of settings, from schools to hospitals and other clinical settings.
