About the Program

Auditory Sciences: Physics and Engineering, Physiology and Therapy of Hearing “Auditory Sciences” is a structured PhD programme that is integrated in the “Joint Research Academy in Biomedical Engineering and Science of Hearing and Sensory Systems” (JRA) of the cluster of excellence “Hearing4all”. As the JRA especially aims to promote the young scientist of the cluster, respective support programmes (e.g., career development by further scientific education, strengthening personal competences as well as networking with international peers) are organised and coordinated. Since October 2013, courses within the PhD programme in Auditory Sciences have been offered by all participating universities (i.e., Hannover Medical School, Leibniz Universität Hannover, Carl von Ossietzky Universität Oldenburg) providing fundamental training and lectures for students with diverse qualification in the interdisciplinary field of hearing research. Involved disciplines include otorhinolaryngology, medical physics, chemistry, biology and physiology, biotechnology, and bionic and neuroprosthetics as well as integrative and cognitive neuroscience. Additionally, a strong cooperation with technical disciplines like bioengineering and medical technology is provided. Joint obligatory courses and an annual summer school organised by the students support the interdisciplinary idea, facilitate networking, and provide the opportunity for professional and interdisciplinary exchange between the students from all locations. Alumni of this programme have excellent career options in (biomedical) industry, clinics or the scientific field.
