This is a project-based course. Students choose their own topic (any area related to audio: sound, music, acoustics, digital signal processing, electronics, etc). The project is developed with a proposal (week 5), a progress report (week 8), an in class presentation (week 12) and a final report. Students may work individually or in groups. Curriculum and background material will be covered in lectures. Grading is 50% assignments, 50% project. Program examples in lectures will be presented in Matlab/Octave, though students are free to do assignments (and project) on any platform. Prerequisites: None. Lecture material is self contained, however Matlab and Scientific Computation (CS370/71) or equivalent background is recommended.
