Hearing Science

Hearing Science is the study of normal and impaired auditory sensation and perception, and the technologies and other rehabilitation strategies for persons with hearing loss and other auditory processing disorders. All faculty supervisors are researchers at the National Centre for Audiology. Our masters and doctoral programs are available to students interested in a research career in the hearing sciences. We welcome applications and inquiries from persons with diverse educational backgrounds, including engineering science, biosciences, audiology, music, linguistics, psychology, health sciences, and communication sciences.

The MSc and PhD in the Hearing Science field provides students with a research degree in hearing science. It does not prepare students for a career in clinical audiology. For information about the clinical audiology degree program (M.Cl.Sc.), please consult our School of Communication Sciences and Disorders.
