BSc Audiology

... United Kingdom
... University of Leeds

Course Overview

One in every ten of us is affected by hearing impairment - a number expected to increase with an ageing population. The demand for hearing assessment and rehabilitation services is high and expected to increase. We need people with skills, capabilities and curiosity.

Studying audiology will set you up for a rewarding and exciting career. In addition to assessing and treating patients, careers in audiology can involve consultancy, counselling, advising, educating, researching and therapy.

The NHS employs audiologists in a range of settings and a variety of roles, including hospital Ear, Nose and Throat departments, self-contained audiology centres and educational establishments. A number of audiologists also work as independent practitioners in private practice.

General Eligibility

A-level: ABB including a science subject (Biology, Human Biology, Chemistry, Maths, Physics and Psychology). Other science based subjects will be considered.

We consider all A-level subjects for the remaining grades, except general studies or critical thinking.

EPQs are not considered within our scoring.

GCSE: 5 A*-C (new grading 4-9), including Maths, English language and a science.

The School of Medicine recognises that some applicants may have studied a more flexible curriculum, where they have been able to progress through their educational development at an appropriate rate according to their ability. Where a Level 2 (for example, GCSE) or Level 3 (for example, A Level) qualification has been taken ‘early’ the academic reference should include the reasons for this so that it can be taken into consideration by the admissions team.
