So cool meeting someone in the CSD field! I did my undergrad in CSD, but went for audiology. I have my AuD and am finishing up a PhD (I also did a MS in neuro, but that was because the classes mostly lined up with the PhD and the tuition was free). I swear, finding people outside of tech on lemmy is rare. Finding someone inside of CSD is even more rare. Now I'm curious if I am going to find any other audiology people...
Actually so big brained. The audio physics is so confusing for me
Haha, I love audio. I used to be an audio engineer. It didn't pay well so I went back to school with my GI bill and went for audiology. The dual doctorates actually helped bring the cost down at the expense of staying in school longer. As long as you are in the PhD program your tuition is waved and you get paid a stipend for being a TA/RA. So I planned for my GI bill to run out after my first year, then have been on PhD funding since. The only time I have paid tuition for my doctorates has been when I was on my externship. Then for the masters, it is called a "masters along the way" with no thesis required because I am in a PhD program doing a dissertation. And because neuroscience is in the same college as audiology, most of the classes overlap. I only had to take 5 more classes total. So I stacked 2 during covid (plus mt Aud/PhD classes) when everything was online and did 1 extra a semester for 3 semesters after that. Again, the only downfall of the free tuition is I am spending more time in school not making a my salary potential, but at least I have far less debt than my classmates.
Audiology 💀 We have an audiologist/phoniatrician that used to be our school's medical "lead", so to speak, that is super knowledgeable when it comes to her field and did a lot of scientific work and research for FEES, but she is such a terrible teacher. Every class she's taught are traumatised by her teaching, which is such a shame because she knows so much.
We've got a couple graduates who work with her - they seem to be able to ignore her ways of being a terrible human being :D
