You’ll also undertake simulated activities in the school’s six-bed simulation ward, and learn how to use innovative systems like telepractice.
Importantly, you’ll complete a range of supervised clinical placements to demonstrate your competency for entry into the profession. These clinical placements can include hospitals, educational facilities, healthcare organisations, private practices and UQ’s own open-to-the-public Speech Pathology clinic.
