Admission to the Master of Science in Music and Acoustic Engineering is open to students holding a Bachelor’s or Master’s degree awarded by a non-Italian higher education institution, provided that the qualification is recognised as equivalent in level, nature, and academic content to an Italian degree.
Applicants must demonstrate an adequate background in information and industrial engineering disciplines, particularly in computer engineering, electronics, telecommunications, mathematics, and physics. Admission is subject to the evaluation of curricular requirements and personal preparation by the relevant Admission Committee.
The Master of Science in Music and Acoustic Engineering is designed for students interested in understanding, designing, and developing advanced technologies for sound, acoustics, and music. The programme combines a solid theoretical background with laboratory activities and applied projects, providing interdisciplinary skills in audio, music technologies, and multimedia systems, with a strong focus on design, experimentation, and advanced technological applications.
The Master of Science in Music and Acoustic Engineering provides advanced education in the fields of sound and acoustic engineering, adopting an interdisciplinary approach that integrates competences in information engineering, acoustics, signal processing, computer engineering, and music technologies.
The study programme covers both theoretical and applied aspects of acoustics, digital audio, and sound signal processing, with particular focus on sound modelling, analysis and synthesis, audio acquisition and reproduction systems, music technologies, and multimedia systems. Students also acquire skills in the design of hardware and software systems for audio, musical, and acoustic applications, as well as in perceptual evaluation and sound quality assessment.
The programme combines theoretical courses, laboratory activities, and project-based work, preparing graduates to address complex problems in the fields of audio, music, acoustics, and multimedia technologies, both in industrial and research contexts.
