The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that millions of people suffer from hearing loss due to exposure to excessive noise. This condition is latent especially in workers in productive areas such as construction, industry and transportation. The alarms generated by these annoyances have caused more and more companies to pay attention to the hearing health of their employees, developing exhaustive studies of noise impact. At the same time, implementing these measurements requires meticulous planning and execution where the most advanced technological instruments in the sector are integrally inserted.  

TECH Global University has brought together the main innovations in this field in this postgraduate diploma. Therefore, acoustic engineers will be able to update their theoretical knowledge and practical skills about spectral analysis, frequency bands, among other aspects. At the same time, the syllabus will describe the latest tools for noise measurement, among which digital sound level meters of the highest precision and dosimeters stand out. Intensimetry and acoustic excitation sources will also be addressed in this academic itinerary.  

On the other hand, the program will dedicate one of its modules to mastering the mechanisms for evaluating sound insulation in buildings and other constructions. At the same time, it will go into the necessary tests to determine reverberation, measure the transmission of the spoken word (STI) and the transmission of interior noise to the exterior. All this, through numerous teaching materials that will bring dynamism to this learning process of 450 teaching hours.  

Likewise, the contents of the program have been chosen by a faculty of excellence, composed of acoustic engineers with extensive experience and prestigious results throughout their professional work. These materials are integrated in a disruptive way in a 100% online study platform that is not subject to rigid timetables or evaluation schedules. On the contrary, each graduate will be able to complete their training at any time or place, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
