SLPs who pursue a job in research can look into a variety of issues, including the creation of new evaluation and treatment methods, the origins and consequences of communication disorders, and the influence of communication disorders on quality of life. Academic SLPs may teach speech-language pathology courses, oversee student clinicians, and conduct research.
SLPs can find meaningful and gratifying positions in both research and academia. However, before selecting a job choice, it is critical to understand the income potential in these sectors.
