पाठ्यक्रमबारे सारश

The School of Management and the Department of Communicative Disorders and Sciences collaboratively offer a five-year program leading to both the Au.D. (Doctor of Audiology) and M.B.A. (Master of Business Administration) degrees. These two leading programs combine to give future audiologists the best in audiology and business education!!! Students who pursue this dual degree program will be ideally prepared for careers in private practice as well as combined clinical and administrative positions. The UB CDS/SOM collaborative program reduces by one year the usual pattern of a four-year Audiology program and a two-year MBA program. Each candidate must meet all the degree requirements of each program, except for the reduction in total credit hours over the two degree programs as described in this document. Students will complete a total of 113 credit hours, which will consist of 65 in Audiology and 48 in Management, of which 21 of the credit hours of MBA courses will be applied to the Au.D. degree as transfer credit. Students wishing to pursue the collaborative program should make application to the MBA program prior to or during their first year of Au.D. study depending on when they plan to begin the MBA portion of the degree.
