Clinical doctorate in audiology degree applicants who are interested in academic careers and who demonstrate potential for doctoral study may request consideration for admission to the Integrated Au.D./Ph.D. program.

If you experience difficulty finding the licensure requirements for your state, please contact the program advisor or the compliance coordinator at 91探花 for help.
