COURSE CURRICULUM

The Master of Arts in Audiology program requires the completion of a minimum of thirty credit hours, all of which are fulfilled through coursework planned in consultation with an academic faculty advisor. This flexible structure allows students to design a program of study that aligns with their individual interests and career goals within the field of hearing and acoustics. Rather than following a fixed set of required courses, students work closely with their advisor to select appropriate classes that build a strong foundation in auditory science, sound analysis, and acoustic principles. This personalized approach ensures that students can focus on specific areas such as research, technology, or theoretical aspects of audiology, depending on their professional aspirations.The program emphasizes a non-clinical perspective, meaning that coursework is oriented toward developing analytical, scientific, and conceptual knowledge rather than clinical skills. Students may engage in topics related to hearing mechanisms, acoustic environments, and the application of sound in various industries. Through guided coursework, they also develop critical thinking, problem-solving, and research abilities that are essential for careers in academic, industrial, or research settings.Overall, the program’s structure provides both flexibility and depth, allowing students to tailor their education while ensuring they gain comprehensive knowledge in audiology-related fields. By completing the thirty-credit requirement under faculty guidance, graduates are well-prepared for non-clinical roles involving hearing science and acoustics, or for further academic study in related disciplines.
