ETSU's Doctor of Audiology (Au.D.) program aims to equip students with comprehensive clinical training and academic knowledge for serving diverse patient populations. The curriculum prepares graduates for careers as audiologists and clinic leaders through hands-on experiences across multiple settings and carefully selected clinical placements. Students will develop the expertise to adhere to ASHA's ethical standards while delivering high-quality diagnostic and rehabilitative services. While primarily clinical, this doctoral program also fosters critical thinking skills to evaluate and enhance professional practice through research application. The Au.D. offers two pathways: the Traditional Entry track for bachelor's degree holders and the Advanced Standing option for those with a master's in Audiology.
