Au.D. in Clinical Audiology

Syracuse University's Au.D. program, offered by the Department of Communication Sciences and Disorders, fosters a collaborative learning environment for faculty, students, and colleagues that furthers the understanding of audiology and the scientific bases of clinical practice.

Financial Support - Receive a guaranteed 30% reduced tuition scholarship if you enter in fall of 2026. Over the last three years 100% of incoming students have also received scholarship awards to help offset tuition costs. No separate funding application is required.
Fast Track to Graduation - We recently streamlined our program to 77 credits. You'll enjoy fewer courses and reduced tuition costs while receiving the same breadth of coursework options and depth of clinical experiences that our program is known for.
Clinical Experience - Students begin their clinical experience at the very start of their graduate program. The on-campus Gebbie Clinic and off-site clinical placements provide excellent hands-on training.
Active Research Faculty - Students are involved at several levels from working in labs, independent studies, group-directed research and thesis projects. All faculty are actively engaged in research addressing cutting-edge, clinically relevant projects.
Welcoming to All - Through a holistic admissions process, applicants are evaluated through a variety of methods, not simply standardized test scores and GPA.

In your fourth year, you’ll complete a 12-month externship. Thanks to our strong local and national network, you will be an excellent candidate. Plus, you’ll receive full support throughout the application process.

After your first year as an Au.D. student, you can then apply to the dual Au.D./Ph.D. program. This rigorous, intensive and streamlined program will allow you to pursue both clinical and research training.

As an Au.D./Ph.D. student, I received a thorough clinical education and broad range of clinical experiences, crafted an individualized curriculum that best suited my needs and goals and gained valuable teaching experience. Now, as an Assistant Professor at West Virginia University, I practice the clinical, research and teaching skills that I learned at Syracuse University every day.
