Bachelor of Arts (Hons) in English Language For Speech and Language Therapy (SLT)(Optional Placement Year)

Program Overview

This specialist English Language for Speech and Language Therapy degree is taught by internationally renowned researchers in language and cognition. It is underpinned by rigorous knowledge of the concepts, theories and practices relating to the structure and ways in which English language is used, adapted, and learned.

Linguistics as a subject has been taught at Bangor University since the 1960s, making our department one of the first dedicated departments in the UK. Your teaching is informed by our applied and theoretical research strengths in language acquisition, processing, comprehension, disorders and atypical language development, use, structure, variation, change, communication, maintenance, preservation, teaching, and technologies. It provides you with a deep understanding of how language is acquired, processed, and used in various social, educational, and cultural contexts.

Studying English Language develops excellent skills in critical thinking, data analysis, problem solving, presentation, and independent research, which will enhance your employability upon graduation. As such, it can open a wide range of careers, particularly in writing, journalism, publishing, teaching and in academia.

Outstanding facilities include a professional grade sound/recording studio and speech laboratory with Yamaha, Alesis and RØDE recording equipment, an eye tracking laboratory with a Tobii Pro X2-60 eye tracker, and an ERP (Event Related Potential) laboratory with an actiCHamp Plus ERP machine to measure the brain’s electrical activity in response to language. An extensive range of equipment and specialised software is available to loan for student projects, such as state of the art ERP, eye tracking, sound recording, corpus and psycholinguistic resources. In addition to our dedicated library, Bangor Linguistics Society organises regular socials, guest lectures and workshops.

While this degree does not confer Speech and Language Therapy (SLT) certification upon graduation, it is ideal preparation for subsequent SLT certification via an accredited postgraduate degree.
