MSc Audiology (Pre-Registration)

Queen Margaret University, Edinburgh

Audiologists work with adult and paediatric patients to identify and assess hearing and/or balance disorders, recommending and providing appropriate rehabilitation and management. Our aim is to equip you with the knowledge and skills necessary to practise audiology. In order to achieve this aim, we offer a range of learning experiences, allowing you to develop skills, both independently and in a group setting. The MSc in Audiology (Pre-Registration) course comprises 13 modules. Within these modules you will study supporting subjects - linguistics, anatomy, physiology, psychology, neurology and research methods - and acquire theoretical knowledge relating to hearing and balance. Knowledge and skills acquired in theoretical modules are integrated and applied to clinical practice throughout the course.Through university-based practical sessions and your practice placement, you will develop clinical skills, clinical decision-making and reflective practice, as well as gaining an understanding and awareness of a variety of professional issues.
