Course Information

Acoustics explores the physics of sound and the psychology of how people react to noise and vibration. Prepare for a rewarding future career where you can create a better sounding world with our MEng (Hons) Acoustical and Audio Engineering degree. 

Take your studies further

With a focus on solving real-world problems, you will explore the principles of acoustics, analogue electronics, speech, environmental noise measurement, digital signal processing, psychoacoustics, audio systems and speaker design. With our MEng pathway, you will also study a wider range of advanced modules, ready to explore the range of opportunities that are open to you with specialist acoustic knowledge when you graduate. You will also have the opportunity to complete an industry placement, providing additional real-world context for your studies. 

Industry-focused approach

For over 60 years Salford has pioneered acoustics teaching and research. Led by research-active practitioners, our courses include practical experiments in our world-class acoustic laboratories and facilities, where you can discover the amazing ways that sound and acoustics impact our everyday lives. 

Supportive learning environment

We use small-group teaching to guide you through this creative area of science and engineering. You will follow carefully-designed modules that embed theoretical knowledge and creative application, and nurture your transferable skills so you can become a world-class acoustic and audio professional.
