Overview
ManCAD is the UK leader for applied research in audiology and deafness that has a significant impact upon service delivery in the UK and abroad (eg the NHS newborn hearing screening programme, digital signal-processing hearing aids and the modernisation of NHS hearing aid services).
A PhD/MPhil in audiology from Manchester will give you:
- flexibility to investigate findings not envisaged at the outset of the work and allow the topic to evolve;
- a dedicated training structure that provides training in research skills and personal development;
- an expert supervisory team that will assist the student throughout the study, ensuring academic objectives are met;
- immersion in audiology research - students have the opportunity to discuss their research with fellow students, post-doctoral researchers and academics. ManCAD seminars provide background to recent developments in audiology and there are opportunities to share research findings, contribute to publications and attend/present at prominent conferences.
Postgraduate research projects may be outlined by the academic supervisor, or applicants themselves may identify a research project.
