Abstract:
Bachelors of Audiology and Speech Language Pathology (B.ASLP) program is a three years academic program (both theoretical and practical learning included) plus one year compulsory internship. The Indian Rehabilitative Council has approved this programme. Speech-language pathologists and audiologists work in a variety of hospital settings, as well as in highly specialised clinics like ENT, paediatric, oncology; industries, defence systems and provide rehabilitation facilities such as hearing aids, cochlear implant and other assistive devices. They can also work at the level of faculty positions and research scholars in various institutions/universities. Speech language pathologists are also provided with placements as swallowing therapists in dysphagia rehabilitation centres, normal and special schools, stroke rehabilitation and dementia clinics. However this exacerbated scope of this field is unknown among prospective college students. The current study attempts to determine how well-aware higher secondary (16–18 years of age) students in Kerala are about BASLP as a career option. The results revealed that these students had a low level of awareness about the program as a career option.
