Master of Speech Pathology

Admission requirements

Applicants for this course should hold a three-year undergraduate degree in any discipline. It is also assumed students will have an understanding of linguistics and head and neck anatomy. Linguistics knowledge must include phonetics, phonology, morphology and syntax at a level equivalent to a first-year undergraduate subject. Head and neck anatomy knowledge must include understanding of the structures and functions involved in communication and swallowing. Students without the appropriate knowledge in these areas may be able to enrol in bridging subjects prior to commencing the Master of Speech Pathology.

Internet access

CSU places great emphasis on services to its students. It is a leader in the provision of online services and, in particular, the use of the internet in the support of teaching, administration and communications with students.

The online environment is so integrated into all aspects of student life and the learning experience at CSU that the University now assumes that all on campus and distance education students at CSU will have ongoing access to an internet connected computer capable of communicating with CSU online systems.

Students enrolled in Information Technology subjects (i.e. with an ITC subject code) may be required to have additional hardware and/or software that is deemed essential for the completion of the learning activities in that subject.
