Thank you! --- The Harvard-MIT Division of Health Sciences and Technology (HST) invites applications for admission to the Ph.D. program in Speech and Hearing Bioscience and Technology (SHBT) for the fall semester 2006. Applicants to the HST-SHBT program should have a bachelor's degree in Engineering, Neuroscience, Physics, Biology, Psychology, Linguistics, Communication Disorders, Audiology, Mathematics or Computer Science -- with strong analytical skills. Course work in the first year assumes familiarity with calculus, college level physics, probability/statistics, and biology. Applicants should note the program's emphasis on broad-based interdisciplinary research education, rather than on clinical or narrowly focused technical training. Students are accepted based on their interests, academic background, intellectual capacity, curiosity, motivation, energy, and character. US citizens and permanent residents are eligible for fellowship support from the National Institutes of Health. Applications are due December 15th, 2005.
