Le Mans University (Le Mans, France) and the ESEO group (Angers, France) are offering IMDEA and OROSOUND scholarships in Electroacoustics for the 2023-2024 academic year.

The International Master’s Degree in ElectroAcoustics – IMDEA – was created in 2012 at the request of the EMV Foundation which found a lack of engineers in this field for several years. The Le Mans University and the EMV foundation have defined the objectives and career opportunities in this Master’s program together.

The Master program is almost unique in Europe for learning electroacoustics.
