As a graduate of the Master of Speech Pathology, you will develop the knowledge, skills, and confidence to work as an autonomous speech pathologist, responding to the needs of individuals and communities who experience difficulties with communication and swallowing. In this course you will develop the tools you need to provide safe, ethical and quality person, family and community-centred practice in complex and changing environments. Working across a range of health, education and private settings, you will provide evidence-based services to people and communities in local, national and global contexts.
Effective communication skills will enable you to work in partnership with others and collaboratively in interprofessional teams, reflective of the industry. You will also develop the skills to lead, advocate, and innovate to develop socially responsible and sustainable actions that support every individual’s right to optimal communication and swallowing.
This full-time course runs over four semesters, with 50 credit points (4 units) each semester. A 3-year part-time pathway is available and runs over six semesters. While our hub for Speech Pathology is located in Launceston, our delivery is specifically designed to be place-based, so that you can complete elements of study from wherever you reside in Tasmania.
Throughout the four stages of the course, you will engage in online and independent learning, including weekly interactive webinars with staff for all units. You will need to be available to attend two week-long Residential Schools in Launceston each semester, and engage in work integrated learning (WIL) opportunities throughout the course as part of the units.
The WIL opportunities will include a supervised professional placement experience (PEP) in each semester of the program. WIL and part-time PEP will involve placements collocated to your place of residence, where possible, while block placements may occur across Tasmania. Please note this means you are currently unable to undertake the course from interstate.
