Speech and language therapy degrees

 Our undergraduate Speech and Language Therapy programme is also available to study with a Foundation Year, which is ideal for mature students without standard entry qualifications.

Funding your studies

A training grant of at least £5,000 per year is available for all eligible UK (Home) BMedSci and MMedSci students to help them with their studies, as well as extra funding to cover the cost of travel to clinical placements where applicable.

There is also funding available for students with at least one dependent child or for those facing hardship.

Your career

Our courses are approved and accredited by the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC) and the Royal College of Speech and Language Therapists. This means that, when you graduate, you can apply to register with the HCPC as a speech and language therapist.

Speech and language therapists are in high demand, and there are plenty of opportunities to specialise in areas such as mental health, stammering, hearing impairment, learning difficulties, eating, drinking and swallowing difficulties, or neurological impairments. 

Many of our graduates have gone on to successful careers within NHS trusts, schools, charities, private practices and the justice system. Others choose to go on to postgraduate study and research.

What our students say

We think our Speech and Language Therapy courses are pretty great but don't just take our word for it. Our undergraduate and postgraduate students have been telling us all about their experiences within the School of Allied Health Professions, Nursing and Midwifery.
