Audiologists diagnose, manage, and treat a patient’s hearing, balance, or ear problems. Most audiologists work in healthcare facilities, such as physicians’ offices, audiology clinics, and hospitals. Some work in schools or for school districts, and travel between facilities. Others work in health and personal care stores. Audiologists need a doctoral degree and must be licensed in all states. Requirements for licensure vary by state. The median annual wage for audiologists was $75,920 in May 2017. Employment of audiologists is projected to grow 21 percent from 2016 to 2026, much faster than the average for all occupations.
