ACOUSTICS AND VIBRATION ACADEMY (AVA): Current trends and advanced methods in acoustics and vibration
(July 4-5, 2026)
This event aims to introduce advanced educational modules combining theoretical foundations with practical applications in three thematic areas.
During the two days program the event will present theory, newly emerging methods and systems to provide advanced-level training designed for both graduate-level students with fundamental knowledge in acoustics and professionals working in the field.
Professionals participating in this academy will receive a "certificate of participation". Students, upon request, may obtain a certificate indicating that the training activity has been evaluated as 1 ECTS credit, provided that they complete an additional preparatory assignment and take an examination at the end of the training.(The awarded 1 ECTS credit is recorded in the Diploma. Supplement at the students' home universities within the scope of the Micro-Credential System.)
PROGRAM AT A GLANCE: July 4-5, 2026 (2 days)
- 1,5 days: Lectures & practical exercises
- Half a day: Workshops & hands-on measurements
- 10-30 minutes: Sponsor presentations
- 30-60 minutes: Exam – for students who want to have it as credits
