COVID-19 update
Find out how we’re adapting during COVID-19.
Language is at the heart of human life. Its study is crucial to our understanding of ourselves as members of society, as individuals and as a species.
At Reading, we offer you the opportunity to study all aspects of this most complex form of human behaviour.
Explore the science behind language. As a student in the Department of Clinical Language Sciences you will benefit from our world-leading research in linguistics, language development and language disorders in monolingual and bilingual children and adults.
Additionally, most of our staff are practising speech and language therapists and they will give you a direct insight into the latest developments in clinical practice.
