课程概览
Applications for 2027 entry will close in early December 2026. This accredited masters course qualifies you to practice as a speech and language therapist in a variety of health and education settings. It can be studied full-time, over two years, or part-time, over three years. You will study a wide variety of differences that adults and children can have with communicating and/or eating, drinking and swallowing. Topics range from anatomy and physiology, and their relationship with speech and language pathology, to the psychological and sociological factors that can affect communication. Throughout your degree, you’ll learn how to assess an individual’s communication or eating, drinking and swallowing difficulty, identify suitable interventions and support their progress. You’ll work closely with service users, family members, carers and related professionals to support the people you are working with. You will also complete pre-registration eating, drinking and swallowing competencies, set by the Royal College of Speech and Language Therapists (RCSLT). You’ll put your training into practice through a series of clinical placements, both within the University of Sheffield’s in-house speech and language therapy clinic and on external clinical placements. The course is led by a supportive team of clinical and research specialists, including speech and language therapists, psychologists, audiologists, linguists, information technologists, and medical practitioners. The University is a world-leading centre of research, and our teams will embed the latest research into your teaching to help you to make evidence-based decisions in future practice.
