Audiology: off to a flying start with the "Bachelor Professional"

"Essential occupations requiring a master craftsperson qualification such as the audiologist are in no way inferior to a degree," explains Marianne Frickel, President of the Federal Guild of Hearing-Aid Acousticians (biha). "Having successfully passed the journeyman examination, those opting to complete the master craftsperson certificate are able to start their own business and offer training themselves." However, there is also a need for audiologists in teaching and research. The audiology degree in Lübeck at master’s through to doctorate level is also open to them.
