To be able to do this Master's degree, it is necessary to prove that you have a degree in the field of acoustics, including the Degree in Telecommunications, Sound and Image Systems Engineering; the Degree in Industrial Engineering; the Degree in Mechanical Engineering; the Degree in Architecture, and other titles expressly declared as equivalent.

The WAVES Master's study plan is developed through a two-year, 4-semester program, each consisting of 30 ECTS. The structure of the program is as follows:

• Semester 1 (taught at the University of Coimbra, Portugal). Oriented towards engineering applications, along with the teaching of acoustics fundamentals and methods that allow us to address problems that arise in common practical situations. Emphasis will be placed during this semester on the structural dynamics and acoustics of the building.
• Semester 2 (taught at the Universitat Politècnica de València, Gandia campus, Spain). Strengthening fundamental knowledge and introduction to a broader range of numerical and experimental methods. Specialization in a variety of fields of acoustics will also be addressed: psychoacoustics, electroacoustics, room acoustics, ultrasound, musical acoustics, and underwater acoustics.
• Semester 3 (taught at Aix-Marseille University and École Centrale Marseille, France). Dedicated to specialization in the acoustic engineering of tomorrow: environmental engineering acoustics, complex media, non-linear systems, metamaterials, etc.
• Semester 4 (eligible destination). There are a total of 20 institutional partners and 21 industrial partners around the world that offer opportunities to develop the final master's thesis.

The program has been designed to propose a personalized combination between traditional face-to-face teaching through practical work sessions and more innovative approaches, such as flipped classrooms, problem-based classes and group projects. Students will benefit from the participation of visiting scholars and guest lecturers, as well as professors and researchers from collaborating entities.

Finally, associated laboratories and industrial partners will provide a wide range of internships and work opportunities as well as a large network of international contacts.

Its objective is to provide students with a broad spectrum of scientific knowledge and skills in the field of acoustic engineering, from advanced modeling of wave phenomena to the sustainable development of silent transportation systems in urban areas. Graduates will gain valuable international experience to meet the growing challenges that tomorrow's acoustic engineers will face in industrial and academic contexts. They will contribute to reducing the environmental impact of noise, improving the performance of sound equipment systems or improving ultrasonic devices used in modern medicine. These domains are a source of highly qualified jobs in a large number of industrial sectors such as transport (aeronautics, automotive and railway), buildings and infrastructure, energy (structural monitoring of nuclear power plants, wind farms, ...), audio systems and musical instruments, oceanography and geophysics.
