10/20/2025From aphasia to cerebral palsy logopedics is devoted to the diagnosis and therapy of speech, writing, language, voice, swallowing, and hearing impediments and all related phenomena. It calls upon research results from many neighboring disciplines and uses these as the foundation for the development of optimal therapy strategies. Its objective is to improve the ability to communicate, ingestion, and the swallowing process. In the longterm its solutions offer a higher quality of life and more participation in everyday life and work. Sociodemographic developments and changed structures in health and social services are requiring speech therapists to acquire academic qualification. As a result RWTH and the School of Logopedics at the University Hospital are collaborating to offer a dual course of study, which closely combines training with studies. Due to the integrated concepts from training, it is possible to consider scientific evidence in diagnostics and therapy ? evidence-based work ? and simultaneously ensure top practical training. After six semesters, that is three years, students take the state exam for certification in speech therapy. After a fourth academic year they earn a Bachelor's degree. The studies take the reality into account that logopedics is much more than a therapeutic career. As a discipline shaped by research, it experiments, designs studies and interprets results, and develops application and treatment recommendations. It is a crucial part of clinical neuropsychology and is interdisciplinarily shaped at the cross-section of medicine, linguistics, and psychology. The inclusion of these three academic disciplines results in a teaching concept, in which classical and core speech therapy skills can be supplemented with transdisciplinary perspectives.
