Speech-Language Pathology
www.slp.utoronto.ca Speech-language pathology is concerned with normal and disordered human communication and swallowing. The Department offers professional and research degree programs leading to careers in the discipline.
The Master of Health Science program in Speech-Language Pathology is a professional graduate program. The primary aim of the program is to prepare practitioners for entry into the practice of speech-language pathology. Graduates are prepared to assume varied professional responsibilities including the assessment, treatment, and management of speech, voice, language, and swallowing disorders. Course work and clinical internships are integrated and sequenced. There is a strong research to practice focus and students complete a comprehensive portfolio requirement in their final year.
The Master of Science degree is a full-time program that prepares students to engage in the scientific study of normal and disordered speech, language and swallowing processes in children and adults. The MSc is a research-oriented program and does not prepare students for clinical practice. Although the primary objective of the MSc program is to prepare students for doctoral studies in speech and language sciences, successful completion of the program does not guarantee entrance into the PhD program.
The purpose of the Doctor of Philosophy program is to prepare students to contribute independently to the advancement of scientific knowledge in their area of specialization within the discipline of speech-language pathology.
