This programme is designed to equip graduates with the knowledge and skills to undertake a career in clinical audiology, research, or in the commercial and charitable sectors. It provides the theoretical knowledge and practical experience for graduates to work in a clinical audiology role in the UK.

In each year of your degree you will take a number of individual modules, normally valued at 15 or 30 credits, adding up to a total of 120 credits for the year. Modules are assessed in the academic year in which they are taken. The balance of compulsory and optional modules varies from programme to programme and year to year. A 30-credit module is considered equivalent to 15 credits in the European Credit Transfer System (ECTS).

The first year will provide you with a full grounding in the science that underpins healthcare and audiology. You will learn about hearing loss in adults and how it can be managed or treated. You will carry out routine hearing tests and learn basic clinical procedures.

In year two you will study diagnosis and management of hearing loss in adults in further detail, learn about hearing loss in children, tinnitus and balance disorders. You will study research methods and choose a research project topic for your final year. You will develop your clinical and communication skills and complete a compulsory clinical placement of 200 hours.

In the final year you will complete your research project and choose from a range of audiology topics to develop your knowledge of areas that interest you. You will also learn about professional practice and undertake a compulsory clinical placement of 700 hours.
