Hearing Health Education and Outreach

Audiology clinical faculty and Doctor of Audiology students participate in a number of fun, hands-on events for the community every year. From UW’s Science Expeditions and the Wisconsin Science Festival to health fairs and the Institute on Aging Symposium, they share tips on hearing and hearing loss prevention with people of all ages. Visitors can explore interactive activities that make learning about hearing engaging and memorable.
