Can I still work clinically if I complete a PhD instead of an AuD degree?
ASHA accepts a PhD or AuD provided clinical training requirements are met. Students wishing to obtain a PhD and fulfill ASHA’s requirements for clinical certification should also apply to the AuD program. This ensures that they will complete all of ASHAs Knowledge and Skills (KASA) requirements and have clinical spots reserved for them. A student who wishes to also obtain a PhD degree should contact the Graduate Program Coordinator for additional information.
