Audiologists

Significant Points

  • Employment growth will be spurred by the expanding population in older age groups that are prone to medical conditions that result in hearing problems.
  • More than half worked in health care facilities; many others were employed by educational services.
  • A master's degree in audiology has been the standard credential; however, a clinical doctoral degree is becoming more common for new entrants and is expected to become the new standard for the profession.
