Postgraduate ACOUSTIC ELECTRONIC SYSTEMS and ACOUSTIC INFORMATION PROCESSING TECHNOLOGY (MSc)

Entrance Exam Description

Subjects of the exam: English Language, specialty exam.

Program Structure

The programme combines advanced theory, practical engineering, and project-oriented learning:

1. Core Theoretical Foundations
Students gain a deep understanding of the scientific and engineering principles that underlie acoustic and electronic systems, including: Fundamentals of acoustic information processing; Electroacoustic system principles and technologies; Physical acoustics and wave phenomena; Signal theory and spectral analysis.
These topics lay the groundwork for advanced applications in acoustic electronics and spatial signal analysis.

2. Applied Engineering Courses
Practical and technology-focused subjects equip students with hands-on skills to build and evaluate real systems: Acoustic device design and prototyping; Software tools for acoustic signal processing; Acoustic measurement and instrumentation methods; Electroacoustic transducers and system integration.
This component prepares students to design and implement complex acoustic systems for professional and industrial applications.

3. Specialized Topics & Electives
Students can deepen expertise in areas such as: Acoustic non-destructive testing; Medical and biomedical acoustics; Hydroacoustics and underwater signal systems; Acoustic monitoring and environmental systems.
Electives allow tailoring studies to specific interests and career goals.

4. Practical Projects & Laboratory Work
Hands-on work is central to the programme: Laboratory experiments and system testing; Design projects based on real industry scenarios; Team-based engineering tasks and case studies.
These activities develop professional competencies applicable in engineering practice.

5. Master’s Thesis
The programme culminates in an individual Master’s thesis, where students undertake a substantial research or applied engineering project related to acoustic systems and information processing. This final project demonstrates the ability to synthesise theory, tools, and methods to address a realistic technical challenge
