The first three years of this Bachelors program is an equal mix of classroom and clinical sessions. The fourth year would completely comprise of only clinical practice wherein the student has to independently identify, diagnose, and treat the clinical population with utmost care under the supervision of qualified professionals.
After the completion of Bachelors program, the student is now a qualified professional in the field of audiology and speech language pathology. The student now has a variety of choices to decide from – like for example, he/she can take up an employment with government medical service programs at district level hospitals, district level rehabilitation centers, corporate bodies, industrial set ups, residential schools etc. Alternatively, one can choose to have an independent clinic of their own wherein they work closely with other medical professionals like ENT surgeons, Neurologists, Pediatricians, Psychologists and Psychiatrists, and help the patients with regard to overcoming the communication disorders.
The student can also take up the masters program namely M.ASLP for the next two years and can become a seasoned professional in his/her field of expertise. Such professionals are in great demand globally. Most of the Audiologists and Speech Language Pathologists trained in India are well settled all over the world.

I invite the like minded aspirants from the student community to join Shravana Institute of Speech and Hearing and carve a niche for themselves in the field of Audiology and Speech Language Pathology.
