Accepting PhD Students

    PhD projects

    1. Accepting self-funded PhD students: Project areas: speech recognition in noise, perceptual impacts of noise-induced hearing loss, computational modeling and simulation of auditory perception, virtual spatial audio rendering. Self-funded project: https://www.findaphd.com/phds/project/noise-induced-hidden-hearing-loss-in-young-adults/?p152618

    2. Accepting one student for a 3-year fully-funded PhD project: Optimization of a Speech-In-Noise test for Auditory Fitness for Duty
