Introduction
The Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) in Speech and Hearing Science at the University of Illinois is a research-oriented degree that prepares students for academic research careers in communication sciences and its disorders.
The Ph.D. 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 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 various influential career positions in communication sciences and its disorders, including academic appointments at research-intensive universities, research institutions, public agencies, and clinical research settings.
