About this Role

Ready to take your audiology education to the next level with hands-on clinical experience? West Texas Rehabilitation Center (WTRC) is looking for a 4th Year Audiology Extern who is passionate about patient-centered care and ready to become part of our Audiology family.

At WTRC, our mission is centered around providing exceptional care to everyone who walks through our doors, regardless of their financial circumstances. You’ll have the unique opportunity to work alongside professionals across Physical, Occupational, and Speech Therapy, Orthotics, Prosthetics, and more—all in one location.

Working under the supervision of licensed Audiologists, you’ll gain meaningful clinical experience while developing your skills in a supportive environment that encourages both independence and hands-on learning.

What Makes This Role Different

At WTRC, your externship is about more than checking a box for your degree—it’s about preparing you for your career.

You’ll have five Audiologists available for supervision and training, giving you access to multiple perspectives and areas of expertise. We believe in providing as much independence as possible to help you learn and grow, while still being hands-on whenever you need support.
