About Carol Cokely

Dr. Cokely joined the Doctor of Audiology (AuD) Program within the School of Behavior and Brain Sciences in 2001 as the Coordinator of Clinical Teaching. She develops programs to enhance and evaluate the quality of clinical education at the University of Texas at Dallas Callier Center. She earned a B.A. degree from Queens College of the City University of New York, a M.A. degree from Northwestern University and PhD from Indiana University. Prior to a move to north Texas, academic affiliations included Clinical Assistant Professor at Indiana University and Adjunct faculty at Baylor University. She has extensive clinical and supervisory experience in medical, educational and university environments. Dr. Cokely serves as a member of the American Academy of Audiology’s Student Academy of Audiology Advisory Board and as the Distribution Manager of the Academy of Rehabilitative Audiology.

Teaching and Research Interests

Dr. Cokely teaches courses in adult aural rehabilitation, research methods, and counseling and coordinates the AuD independent-research requirement, and directs independent-research projects. She developed Teaching Clinics in Audiology as a result of her interest in clinical teaching methods. Teaching Clinics during the first three semesters occur along side standard rotations and are designed to provide first-year AuD students direct access to evaluation and counseling methods in a forum that fosters critical thinking and independence. All on-campus and off-site clinic rotations, including full-time, year-long externships during students’ fourth year in the Program are coordinated by Dr. Cokely. Each year, she co-directs the Summer Intensive Aural Rehabilitation Conference (SIARC), a five-day program that brings state of the art rehabilitation techniques to adults with hearing loss and their families and provides an excellent learning forum for graduate students.
