Phd in Acoustics and Noise Control

3 Years On Campus Phd Program

Heriot Watt University Edinburgh

Program Overview

Studies have shown that engineering noise control solutions are not sufficient for dealing with today s acoustical challenges, as multiple factors affect sound and its perception. The research focus of the acoustics theme is therefore in line with the broader soundscape approach, which relies on both physical characteristics and mental perception of the aural environment. Soundscape research is multidisciplinary by nature, as it combines engineering and social science methodologies, in view of developing qualitative solutions aimed at improving quality of life and comfort.
