Abstract:
The University of Florida on-campus AuD program is described. To date, 63 students have been enrolled in this program. Sixteen doctoral-level audiology faculty teach in this program, either in the classroom or clinically. Coursework spans all areas included in the audiology scope of practice. The curriculum also has classes taught by faculty in other related disciplines, such as medicine, neuroscience, pharmacology, and counseling. Clinical practicum experiences throughout the program occur in a major health science center on campus, along with a number of other clinical sites. With the support of a large faculty and the availability of a wide variety of clinical placements, the University of Florida AuD program provides the necessary knowledge and skills for students to become autonomous professionals.
