| Summary: | ABSTRACT Purpose: to analyze the training and work profile of speech-language-hearing professors responsible for public health curricular components in speech-language-hearing undergraduate programs in Brazil. Methods: a documentary analysis addressing Lattes curricula of 50 professors identified with the snowball technique. Extracted information was classified into variables, which were analyzed with descriptive statistics and multiple correspondence analysis. Results: most professors graduated in the Southeast Region, have a doctoral degree, wrote their theses or dissertations on speech-language-hearing clinics, conduct research and public outreach projects on public health, and produce scientific literature on speech-language-hearing clinics. Moreover, some professors do not have a postgraduate degree in public health. Conclusion: the scenario indicates possibly weakened scientific research and teaching on public health in speech-language-hearing programs, as the training and work of an important part of the professors identified in this study are not specifically focused on this field.
