Bachelor of Speech Pathology (Honours)

Help others find their voice

Our ability to communicate clearly and enjoy food or drink are things we can take for granted. But people of all ages can experience difficulties and the effects can be devastating. Speech pathologists work to improve a person's abilities, they also work to improve quality of life. Launch your career in this rewarding field of health with La Trobe's Bachelor of Speech Pathology (Honours).

You'll develop an understanding of the anatomy behind speech and swallowing impairments and provide therapeutic treatment and management options. Build hands-on skills with approximately 1,000 hours of placement on-campus and in clinics across Victoria. You'll also learn how to improve speech pathology services and policies by tackling a fourth-year industry project or research thesis.
