University of Sheffield, Human Communication Sciences Masters Degrees

The Department of Human Communication Sciences at the University of Sheffield is concerned with teaching and research into normal interpersonal communication, communication impairment, and the remediation of communication impairment. We have a national reputation in clinical education and related professional studies, and offer both clinical and non-clinical undergraduate degrees.

We study normal and atypical development of spoken and written language, and specialise in the nature, investigation and remediation of speech, language, communication and literacy difficulties in children and adults. One of our main activities is undergraduate and postgraduate training of speech and language therapists and other professionals working with clients with communication impairments, and we are unusual in running our own clinic and associated professional activities.
