AUDI1011 2025-26
Clinical and Professional Practice in Audiology 1
This module will enable you to develop the basic clinical knowledge, skills, attitudes, values and behaviours required of your first stage of clinical training in audiology, including those required for audiology assistant and Hearing Care Assistant (HCA) roles. This module is carefully coordinated with the other modules in Part 1 such that you will be able to register with the British Society of Hearing Aid Audiologists as an HCA on successful completion of Part 1. For example, it provides a discipline-specific context for your introduction to healthcare services in Introduction to Professional Practice and helps prepare you for Audiology Clinical Placement 1. Three key themes of this module are integration of theory with practice, a strong foundation in patient-centred communication and care, and employability. The module consists of a series of compulsory small-group practical sessions associated with lectures. -

Clinical and Professional Practice in Audiology 2
This module will consolidate and develop your understanding of, and clinical practical skills related to, audiology techniques, technology and appointment types; your professional and employability skills; your knowledge of methods of clinical investigations and service improvement (including clinical audit and service evaluation); and your understanding of your obligations to your professional and registration bodies on completing the degree. For example, it builds on the clinical skills you learnt in Clinical and Professional Practice 1 by increasing the complexity of the clinical scenarios (e.g. with real-ear measurement, pure-tone audiometry with masking, impression taking and various appointment types) and introducing new clinical skills (e.g. objective testing and uncomfortable loudness levels). The module also includes sessions to help prepare you to start your main clinical placement covered by the modules Audiology Clinical Placement 2 and 3. -

Clinical and Professional Practice in Audiology 3
This module is designed for undergraduate audiology students to provide a wider context for clinical and professional skills, behaviours, attitudes and values necessary to be a successful audiology professional. It follows on from Clinical and Professional Practice 1 and 2, covering issues relevant to you as a student, as a graduate seeking your first job and a leader within your profession. It also follows on from Clinical Placement, extending your skills and experience of adult aural rehabilitation and extending to other relevant areas of audiology, including those required for professional registration as a Clinical Physiologist (audiology) and Healthcare Science Practitioner (audiology) (paediatrics and vestibular practice).
You will complete the next stages of your portfolios of clinical audiology competence (the Individual Record of Clinical Practice, IRCP) and of professional practice (Professional Development Portfolio, PDP), building on that completed during Audiology Clinical Placement 1, 2 and 3. -

AUDI6015 2025-26
Clinical Audiology
The purpose of this module is to provide you with an introductory grounding in audiology, including adult diagnostic assessment, rehabilitation and otology, underpinned by theoretical knowledge and understanding. You will also develop skills in integrating clinical findings, drawing conclusions and making recommendations. It will allow you to develop a critical understanding of audiological techniques. The psychological, social and emotional impacts of hearing and balance problems are also highlighted in this module, with an emphasis on patient-centered communication and shared decision-making. This module will also develop your employability skills.
The module also develops your pre-clinical practical skills in a range of audiological assessment and rehabilitation techniques with non-clinical populations using our in-house skills laboratory and audiology clinic. You must attend all on-campus practical learning and assessment sessions when taking this module. You will also be required to attend all 'preparation for placement' sessions to ensure you are ready to start clinical placement in Part 2 of the programme. -

Clinical Biomechanics
This module is designed to provide students from a range of multidisciplinary backgrounds, such as Podiatrists, Physiotherapists, Occupational Therapists, Prosthetists, Nurses, and Engineers with the opportunity to advance your knowledge and skill in the biomechanics of human movement and to explore contemporary issues related to assessment and therapeutic management. This will involve exploring key issues of human movement analysis in a range of settings, such as the adult services within the NHS, other healthcare organisations within and outside of the UK, charity settings, sport, and the military.
The module sits within the MSc Professional Practice in Health programme and is closely linked to complementary modules such as ‘Contemporary issues in Limb Loss’ (10ECTS), ‘Amputation and rehabilitation and prosthetic use’ (20ECTS) and ‘Long-term conditions of the lower limb’ (10ECTS), but can be undertaken as a standalone module.
The module is likely to attract professionals who are currently working in the field of rehabilitation of human movement, or those who would like to move into a career in this area. The module will provide a flexible route for working professionals and will be taught in a one-week block.
