Overview

This Audiology program from Kent State University may be undertaken simultaneously or sequentially with the Doctor of Audiology degree.

Students may be in the Ph.D. program on a part-time basis; however, all students must meet a residency requirement with two consecutive semesters of full-time enrollment prior to acceptance into candidacy.

Graduates of this program will be able to:

Demonstrate competency within one major and two cognate areas of expertise.

Demonstrate skills necessary to develop, implement and evaluate a line of individual research.

Demonstrate oral and written communication skills and synthesis/application of materials needed to teach within a clinical and/or didactic context.

Programme Structure

This collection of coursework relates to the students' main areas of interest. It typically consists of lecture classes, seminars and independent studies. Included within the 24 credit hours are 4 credit hours of colloquium and 3 credit hours of research design.

The colloquium provides information about areas that are of common interest to doctoral students regardless of specialties. Included are such topics as grant and manuscript writing, clinical and departmental administration, supervision and professional presentations.

Courses that complement the students' interests in the cognates may be taken in other program areas (such as psychology, business, biology, counseling and special education); within speech pathology and audiology; or from an affiliated medical school.
