Audiology is an extremely challenging and expanding field of clinical science. Audiological Scientists are members of multidisciplinary teams who are concerned with the identification, diagnosis and rehabilitation of disorders of hearing and / or balance for patients of all ages, particularly children and the elderly. Audiological Scientists ensure that reliable and valid test techniques are used, develop and assess new techniques and conduct research relating to diagnostic and rehabilitative services. Audiological Scientists may also have responsibility for managing audiology services within the NHS. Employment prospects are particularly good in this field due to a large number of NHS developments that include the provision of digital hearing aid technology and Universal Neonatal Hearing Screening. |
