Overview of the didactic program

Music and Acoustic Engineering is a two-year Master Program that falls within the area of Information Engineering (the "reference disciplinary area", as identified by the Italian Ministry of Education, University and Research is LM-32, corresponding to Computer Science and Engineering).

This M.Sc. program has two tracks, Acoustic Engineering identified as MCR and Music Engineering identifies as MMI. The MCR track is offered in Cremona Campus and has a special focus on computational, vibrational, musical and room acoustics. The Music Engineering track is offered in Milano Leonardo Campus and is more concerned with all aspects of musical informatics; audio and multimedia signal processing; music information extraction and retrieval; and music production technologies.

 

The following are the  main courses that characterize both tracks:
