Abstract

The constant reduction of allowable noise levels and consumer demand for a better acoustic performance of technical systems put a tremendous pressure on manufacturers. As a consequence, engineers who know about acoustics, and the measures to improve it, are currently looking at numerous job openings. In fact, the industry is seeking intensively in this field. The present paper is related to the contents of courses on acoustics at the university as well as in industry. Its focus is to discuss the question ‘‘What is needed?’’ in order to meet the requirements of future acoustic challenges and, of course, the expectations of the student’s future employer. Based on the author’s experience and a little questionnaire, a possible course content is setup and discussed.
