Overview
The Environmental Noise module at the University of Salford will develop your ability to interpret and apply current environmental noise legislation, guidance, and best practice based on client requirements.
What you will learn
You will carry out practical measurement and modelling exercises using appropriate instrumentation and state-of-the-art tools for the environmental noise assessment of road, rail, and air vehicles.
You will also gain knowledge of noise control processes and methodologies, learning to select and apply suitable control options for realistic scenarios within the transport sector.
Emphasis is placed on understanding and critically assessing current best practices in environmental noise management and adapting them for application in complex or unfamiliar situations.
