Education
The teaching responsibilities in the Department of Otolaryngology focus on Otolaryngology residents, medical students, post-doctoral students, fellows and community physicians and health care providers. The department does not issue graduate degrees, and therefore, there are no graduate students.
The scope of departmental teaching encompasses delivery of health care for the medical and surgical problems related to the head and neck, hearing disabilities, speech and language disorders, and the multiple requirements for habilitation and rehabilitation of those disorders affecting hearing, speech, and swallowing resulting from various diseases and the consequences of definitive treatments of such conditions.
