Academic programs in acoustics

This page offers a partial list of academic institutions that offer significant exposure to the science of acoustics. Because acoustics is a broad, multi-disciplinary field, many institutions offer acoustics courses through various other departments, such as physics, architecture, or a particular discipline of engineering. A few institutions, however, have departments dedicated exclusively to acoustics.
There are also varying degrees of instructional availability with regard to student status, again because acoustics is a broad and complex discipline. Some institutions offer courses to undergraduate-level students, while others primarily offer graduate-level courses.
