Audiometry

In the hearing sector, audiometric technicians are required to perform audiological tests, make hearing scans, and apply hearing aids by measuring the hearing. Audiometry technicians are health technicians who perform the necessary tests on patients whose indications are determined by using the relevant equipment. The audiometry technicians, or audiometrists, perform pure tone and speech audiometry tests and immitancemetric measurement tests for hearing assessment. They record the information about the type of hearing loss, level, and patient’s cooperation on the test form. They can perform hearing tests for newborn babies and conduct hearing screening tests in schools. They take ear mold measurements for hearing aid application, measure, and adjust the gain and output values of the devices deemed appropriate.

Assessment

Course assessment usually comprises of a comprehensive final exam and continuous assessment. Continuous assessment can include amongst others, mid-terms, projects, and class participation. Letter grades are calculated based on the weight of the final exam and the continuous assessment and the actual numerical marks obtained in these two assessment components. Based on the course grades the student’s semester grade point average (GPA) and cumulative point average (CPA) are calculated.

Graduation

The student must complete 240 ECTS and all programme requirements. A minimum cumulative grade point average (CPA) of 2.0 is required for graduation. Thus, although ‘C-‘, ‘D+’ and ‘D‘ are pass grades (conditionally pass), in order to achieve a CPA of 2.0, an average grade of ‘C’ is required. In addition, it is required to complete compulsory internship in a specified duration and quality.
