Graduate students in the Department of Speech and Hearing Science may apply to pursue the following dual-degree options:

• AuD and PhD
• MA-SLP and PhD
   

Advisor Approval

PhD students in Speech and Hearing Science interested in concurrent enrollment in the AuD or MA-SLP degree program must first seek approval from their PhD advisor.

AuD and MA-SLP students interested in concurrent enrollment in the PhD program must first seek approval from a graduate faculty member who will serve as their PhD advisor.
 

Dual-Degree Application to the Graduate Studies Committee

Upon approval from the student’s advisor, the student must submit the SHS Dual-Degree Application to the Department’s Graduate Studies Committee.

The SHS dual-degree application is reviewed by the Graduate Studies Committee in consultation with either the Audiology or MA-SLP Oversight Subcommittees

Acceptance into the second graduate program is based on the student’s qualifications, advisor recommendation, and consideration of the impact on the clinical program (if applicable).
 

Note

Modification to the student’s academic plan and possible implications for funding should be considered before the decision to pursue a second degree is finalized.

Complete details of Dual Degree options and requirements can be found in the Dept. Graduate Handbook.
