Question 14331 — higher education

Summary

Ms. Agnès Carel draws the attention of the Minister of Higher Education and Research to the creation of a doctoral program in speech therapy. For several years, speech therapists have wanted the creation of a doctorate and a section at the National Council of Universities (CNU) in order to further recognize speech therapy sciences. Today, section 91 of the CNU “Rehabilitation Sciences”, of which speech therapy is part, considerably restricts the consideration of all the specificities of the profession which has evolved significantly in recent decades. The speech therapist diploma has been obtained by obtaining the master's degree since 2013. Beyond this master's degree, nothing is envisaged in terms of additional training, a doctorate or even scientific research. Speech therapists who wish to continue their studies then turn to other sectors, such as language sciences, which is neither sufficient nor satisfactory. However, the doctorate in speech therapy exists in other European countries, which allows graduates in speech therapy to continue their clinical practice and thus contribute to scientific advances in this field. Also, she asks her if she intends to meet the expectations of speech therapists and students by creating a doctoral program in speech therapy.
