The Honours Bachelor of Health Sciences and the Master of Health Sciences in Audiology are offered in French.
Also, the Bachelor's and Master's dual degree programs in Health Sciences have been designed for bilingual students.
Honours Bachelor of Health Sciences
The Honours Bachelor of Health Sciences program is defined by its integrative approach for studying health. Students are provided with a foundational biosciences core, research analytical skills training in a range of quantitative and qualitative methodologies within a broader interdisciplinary context of the social and environmental determinants of health. This unique academic approach allows students to discover innovative ways to examine, measure and unravel complex health problems at all life stages, in Canada and around the world.
Future health professionals will be challenged to understand biological, environmental and social factors, both in isolation and as interactive health determinants. The curriculum contains a research methodologies core to provide students with applied, quantitative and qualitative transferrable skills for post-graduate training or employment.
Graduates will be well-prepared to undertake health related MSc programs or pursue careers in public or private health agencies, non-governmental health organizations or in community health programs. Students are provided with the necessary foundation for further studies in medicine, rehabilitation studies, dentistry or pharmacy. Our interdisciplinary focus enhances the quality and maturity of future clinicians and health professionals.
Master of Health Sciences Audiology
Audiology is a health profession specializing in the comprehensive assessment of the auditory and vestibular systems and their functions. Audiologists are involved in the selection, fitting, and follow-up of hearing aids, as well as in the implementation of auditory and vestibular rehabilitation approaches. They work with individuals of all ages to support the development, maintenance, and optimization of communication abilities and quality of life in the presence of hearing or balance disorders. Audiologists also play a key role in public health and prevention, particularly in school, industrial, and community settings.
The practice of audiology is grounded in advanced knowledge of biomedical sciences, neuroscience, acoustics, and psychology. The Master of Health Sciences in Audiology program provides students with this essential knowledge, along with the skills required to intervene ethically, interdisciplinarily, and with a person-centered approach in various care settings.
The program promotes a person-centered and evidence-based education, drawing from research and clinical expertise to deliver effective, personalized care based on the best available knowledge.
The mission of the Master of Health Sciences in Audiology program is to train professionals capable of optimizing the auditory and vestibular health of Francophone communities within Canada's bilingual and multicultural context. All courses are offered in French. However, written assignments and exams may be completed in either French or English. Furthermore, mandatory clinical placements take place in English-speaking, French-speaking, or bilingual environments. Students must have a functional knowledge of both official languages.
The Master of Health Sciences in Audiology program spans six consecutive terms, or two years of full-time study. It includes both coursework and mandatory clinical placements. These placements primarily occur in specialized hearing and vestibular health clinics, hospitals, or rehabilitation centers in the National Capital Region, although some may take place outside this area. Supervised by clinical audiologists, these placements allow students to apply their knowledge in real-world settings, develop clinical skills, and prepare for ethical, evidence-based professional practice.
The curriculum follows the standards established by the Council for Accreditation of Canadian University Programs in Audiology and Speech-Language Pathology (CACUP-ASLP.) Upon completion of the program, graduates are eligible to take the Canadian Entry-to-Practice Exam in Audiology, administered by Speech-Language & Audiology Canada (SAC). Graduates also meet the general requirements for licensure across Canadian provinces.

Note(s)
1
The clinical placements AUD 5529, AUD 5579, AUD 6529, AUD 6539, AUD 6579, and AUD 6649 are compulsory and represent a progression towards the clinical skills required for entry into practice of the profession. Depending on the specific characteristics of the placement settings, it is possible that the minimum required number of hours in one of the professional domains may not be met. If this occurs, a complementary placement in the relevant area of practice may be required. This complementary placement then becomes a program requirement and must be successfully completed.
Specific Requirements for the Master's Program
Minimum Requirements
The passing grade in all courses is C+. A grade of C+ in three or more courses in the same term results in withdrawal from the program. S (Satisfactory) is required for each clinical placement.
Two failures (course or clinical placement) result in withdrawal from the program. In the case of a single failure, the failed course or clinical placement can be repeated the next time the course is offered, but enrollment for courses or clinical placements for which the failed course or clinical placement is a prerequisite will not be possible. In this case, it will not be possible to complete the program within the prescribed time. Failing the repeated course or clinical placement is considered a second failure.
Duration of the Program
The program is spread over 6 consecutive full-time terms.
Expected Professional Behaviour
Students enroled in the Master of Health Sciences in Audiology program are required to uphold and adhere to standards of integrity and professional ethics in all aspects of the program (including coursework, clinical placements, and group work) as well as during interactions with colleagues and with all individuals who contribute to course instruction, clinical supervision and placements, research, and more broadly to your academic training. The essential skills and qualities required for studies in audiology can be found here.
Requirements for Clinical Placements
Students enroled in the Master of Health Sciences in Audiology program are required to comply with the Faculty of Health Sciences' Requirements for practical learning activities (courses, labs, internships, and clinical placements) regarding immunizations, police record checks, and any other training or information necessary to ensure health and safety in clinical settings. It is the responsibility of each student to be aware of these requirements and to take the necessary steps to meet them.
Non-compliance with clinical placement requirements may lead to serious consequences, including the inability to complete clinical placements and even removal from the placement.
Attendance at clinical placements is mandatory, the abandonment of a clinical placement already started without good reason is a failure. In accordance with the affiliation agreement between the University of Ottawa and the clinical institution: "The organization may terminate an internship in a clinical setting and prohibit a student from continuing it if, in its opinion, the studentâs behavior represents a potential danger to its customers or patients or has a negative impact on their well-being or on the personnel of the organization ". In the event that a student is excluded from the placement setting, a failing grade will be assigned for that clinical placement.
The clinical placements mainly take place in the Ottawa region, but they may also occur in other parts of Ontario and Canada. In some cases, the Consortium National de Formation en Santé (CNFS) may covert part of the travel costs for out-of-area clinical placements.
