Advanced Rehabilitation focuses on specialized areas of audiological clinical practice. This unit introduces students to the theoretical foundations of cochlear implants, middle-ear devices, bone conduction hearing devices, as well as sound intolerance conditions, including tinnitus and hyperacusis. Through a combination of theoretical knowledge and practical applications, students will gain expertise in providing high-quality, evidence-based care for the assessment and management of complex auditory conditions across the lifespan. Students are expected to attend a 5-day face-to-face intensive as part of their learning for this unit. This intensive will take place during the same week as clinical exams for AUD524. Students will be expected to pay for their intensive related expenses such as transport and accommodation.
