The Department of Speech and Hearing Science (https://ahs.illinois.edu/speech-&-hearing-science) offers the Ph.D. in Speech and Hearing Science, a research-oriented degree that prepares students for academic research careers in the field of communication sciences and its disorders. The PhD program is rigorous in terms of expectations but flexible in terms of prerequisites, thereby allowing students to take advantage of the wide variety of courses and research labs available at the university in order to build their own individual expertise. In addition to completing an individualized program of coursework and research experiences, students will develop the necessary skills to review research, develop research questions, design studies, present at conferences, submit papers, and teach courses. Our goal is to prepare visionary leaders in translational research to fill a variety of influential career positions in communication sciences and its disorders, including academic appointments at research-intensive universities, research institutions, public agencies, and clinical research settings.
