MEng Acoustical Engineering
Gain a Masters-level knowledge of acoustics, sound and vibration and use it to make the world sound better. This acoustical engineering master's will provide fundamental engineering knowledge and a specialist understanding of acoustics. You'll study at the Institute of Sound and Vibration Research, a leading centre for Acoustical Engineering.
MEng Acoustical Engineering looks at how acoustics - the science of sound and vibration - is applied in technology. It has many applications, including:
design of cars
3D-audio systems
designing concert halls
reducing aircraft noise
using ultrasound to fight antimicrobial resistance
This 4-year integrated master's course includes advanced Acoustical Engineering modules. You'll also take a masters-level group design project and apply your engineering knowledge to a design problem.
This course includes practical and lab work throughout. Our projects will allow you to design, build and test components and systems with enhanced acoustic properties. You'll gain the confidence to creatively solve engineering problems.
In your fourth year, you'll take part in a group design project, many of which are industry-led.
You'll have access to our world-class acoustic and engineering facilities, which include:
anechoic and reverberation chambers
an aeroacoustic wind tunnel
listening room
virtual acoustics laboratory
a professional manufacturing centre
Enhance your employability by taking this course with a paid industrial placement year.
