General description
With a very high reputation for research and development in all branches of acoustics, this MSc program attracts students from all over the world, producing an extremely vibrant, cosmopolitan study and research environment.
Engineering Acoustics is an exciting area with multi-disciplinary studies of sound and vibration phenomena. The rapidly developing research in this area includes theoretical, numerical and experimental aspects. The MSc program is offered to students who want to specialize in acoustics. The acoustics lecture-courses offered at DTU cover topics within the broad fields of human hearing and human response to sound, theory of sound and vibration, acoustic measurement techniques and electro-acoustic systems, and architectural and environmental acoustics, which include the many aspects of engineering noise and vibration control.
The Masters in Engineering Acoustics aims to provide the conceptual framework and training in research required for advanced professional work in the fields of:
-
Human-hearing science and audiology
-
Transducer technology and systems
-
Sound recording and reproduction
-
Acoustic design of rooms and auditoria
-
Outdoor sound and noise abatement
-
Noise control in buildings
-
Vibration and noise control in vehicles and machinery
The students specialize in subjects chosen within physical acoustics, architectural acoustics or audiological acoustics. The Acoustic Groups at the department of Electrical Engineering offer the majority of the courses in the program. Our graduates are employed world-wide by acoustic consultancy companies, electro-acoustic industries, audio- and audiology companies, universities, research centers and governments.
