Speech pathologists work with many different people and a variety of different communication challenges, for example giving feeding advice to a mother whose baby has a cleft palate, helping a child with a stutter to speak more fluently or assisting an adult who has had a stroke or a brain injury to regain their communication skills.This course gives you the skills you need to work in this field, developing your understanding of typical and acquired communication development, swallowing disorders and clinical practice in speech pathology.Your first year is interprofessional and taken with other health sciences students. Your studies will then focus on the science and anatomy of speech and language, and ways to assess, manage and prevent functional impairment.You will develop practical skills and apply your learning by completing supervised placements in Curtins on-campus clinics and in a range of community settings.
