About the PhD program: The School supports and implements highly interactive PhD training, involving close mentorship and student collaboration with faculty both within and outside of CSD. Collaboration fosters networking, research productivity, and diverse methodological training. Consistent with the School’s mission statement, the program places priority on PhD training for post-doctoral study and/or academic positions with significant potential impact in the field of Communication Sciences and Disorders. Students in the PhD program are not required to have or to pursue clinical certification. However, we offer dual degrees leading to the combined MA-PHD and AUD-PHD if a student wishes to pursue clinical training.
For inquiry into the Memphis CSD PhD program, contact Gavin Bidelman, PhD [gmbdlman@xxxxxxxxxxx] or any member of the faculty.
