Studying a part-time postgraduate degree in speech therapy is a steppingstone into a rewarding and meaningful branch of therapeutic healthcare. Speech therapists work with people of all ages and backgrounds to diagnose and treat communication and speech disorders. Therapy often involves exercises, strategies and tailored interventions to promote effective communication and build confidence.
The programme covers speech and language disorders across various stages of development, therapeutic intervention methods, and has a significant clinical practice component. There are over 25 postgraduate courses available in the UK and these have a variety of specialisms such as language pathology, clinical studies and developmental psychology. Entry requirements typically include a solid undergraduate degree in a related field like linguistics, psychology, medical sciences or education.
You'll typically study for one year on a full-time basis, or two years part-time, which enables you to continue with professional work while getting a postgraduate degree. You’ll cover linguistics, language development, pathology and bilingualism, acquired speech disorders, communication disorders and various conditions like autism, aphasia and dysphagia. Teaching methods include lectures, tutorials, observation clinics and practical clinical sessions, and you’ll usually have access to advanced clinical facilities, workshops and specialised library resources.
Most programmes include a significant clinical placement component, where you’ll gain first-hand experience in settings like schools, hospitals and clinics. Courses are accredited by the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC) and after graduating, you’ll be able to register as a member and begin your professional practice.
