Visits to schools, hospitals, clinics and other specialist centres provide students with opportunities to observe and work with a range of professionals. During Year 2 and 3, students undertake clinical placements supervised by qualified speech and language therapists. During Year 2 and the final semester, students attend weekly placement sessions. In Year 3 there is a seven-week block placement. In the seventh semester students undertake individual projects in an area of special interest to qualify for the degree.
Assessment is by written and video examinations, coursework and assignments.
