Program Information

Our Doctor of Audiology is a four-year residential program that includes three years of course work, and the equivalent of one year of clinical internship. We do not offer a distance-learning or a part-time option. The application deadline is Jan. 15 of each year.

The degree program is designed to prepare audiologists for autonomous clinical practice.

The ASU Department of Speech and Hearing Science is located in a new, expansive state-of-the-art facility in Lattie F. Coor Hall. The substantial laboratory and clinical space enables us to provide students with advanced technology teaching, research and clinical facilities.

The doctor of Audiology program faculty is comprised of world-class scientists, clinicians and academics from the Speech and Hearing Science Department at Arizona State University, the Mayo Medical School and Mayo Clinic of Scottsdale, and the Veteran's Administration Medical Center in Phoenix.

Clinic

The clinical component of the audiology doctoral program stresses the importance of students first gaining exposure, then supervised experience, and eventually independent service provision as they progress through a series of diverse and challenging campus-based and off-campus clinical placements at a wide variety of facilities.
