During the past few summers, Eric worked at two acoustical/AV consulting firms, TALASKE and Design 27.  In one of his internships, Eric was given the opportunity to build a 15:1 scale model of a brand new concert hall and test the acoustical properties using code he wrote in MATLAB!

Q&A with Eric

Why did you decide to join MDE?

I have a passion for music and anything sound related, but I'm also a huge math geek. MDE allowed me to pursue this passion, and find a way to combine music and engineering.

Definitely the small and tight-knit community. I also love going in and talking to Prof P (Dr. Mary Pilotte) whenever she’s free. 

I would like to work in the acoustic consulting industry.

Someone who can stretch their abilities in order to be successful in more than one concentration.
