an introductory course in Audiology (OSU course-540)    
 
    

In many places, including Ohio State, the introductory course in audiology has pre-requisites in the areas of acoustics/psychoacoustics and anatomy and physiology of the ear. We allowstudents to "skip" those pre-requisites and move directly into SHS 540 IF they are willing to comlete background work on their own in conjunction with the SHS 540 class. Please be aware that this places a significant burden on the student--especially on those who do not have a strong science and math background.

          
Some students are more comfortable taking the full range of pre-requisite coursework. Those students should add the following two courses to the courses listed above:          
a course in basic acoustics (OSU course-SHS 340)          
a course in A&P of the ear and psychoacoustics (OSU course-440)
