[CogSci] PhD program in Speech, Language, and Hearing Sciences at Purdue University

Tue Sep 17 15:03:08 PDT 2024

The Department of Speech, Language, and Hearing Sciences (SLHS) at Purdue
University <https://www.purdue.edu/hhs/slhs/index.html> invites
applications for our Ph.D. program. The Purdue SLHS program is among the
largest and highest-ranked of its kind and is home to leading research
faculty, outstanding facilities and resources, and, most importantly, a
supportive training environment for our graduate scholars.

Faculty engage graduate scholars in interdisciplinary research on normative
and disordered processes in speech, language, voice, swallowing, and
hearing. Doctoral students are fully funded through a variety of sources,
including individual fellowships (at the university and national level),
two NIH training grants, research assistantships, and teaching
assistantships. Students receive individually-tailored training, and
students from our program have an exemplary history of moving into
impactful research-oriented careers.

We will be hosting two virtual breakout sessions about our program.
Session 1: October 10th from 9-10:00am ET. Session 2: October 15th,
3:30-4:30pm ET.  Join in either session to meet and engage with our
faculty, and chat with current PhD students. Click here

to RSVP for a session, a zoom link and additional information will be
shared to those who have signed up.

Prospective applicants are encouraged to contact potential faculty
mentor(s) directly. Below we have listed individual faculty in our PhD
program. Application instructions can be accessed here

.

Applicants should apply by December 1st.

We are committed to preparing the next generation of scientists that
reflects the diversity of our national and global community.  We welcome
applicants from non-traditional and under-represented backgrounds.
