The engineering major that I ho!e that "e!t !uit! me in Audio engineering. Audio engineering ha! more then one name# it! al!o $no%n a! audio te hni ian# audio te hnologi!t# re ording engineer# !ound engineer# !ound operator# or !ound te hni ian.

Some of the ! hool! that I might re ommend that 'ou an ta$e our!e and !tud' thi! !u"je t are# Brown Mackie College# ITT tech# Cleveland Institute of Electronics, Malone University, Ohio University, Washington State Co unity College,

University of Cincinnati!"ay ond Walters College# All lo ated in 5hio. Im loo$ing for%ard into "e oming a audio engineer "e au!e it4! a time to meet ne% people e&en ma'"e famou! people if I %or$ %ith a "ig ompan'. The ollege that I ma'"e thin$ of getting into i! ITT te h for a 2-'ear plan on getting m' "a helor! degree. In 1-,2 the AES %a! formed. 6The Audio Engineering So iet'7 It ha! a mem"er!hip of people %ho are engineer!# ! ienti!t# and people %ho are intere!ted in the produ tion of audio. The mem"er!hip largel' ompri!e! engineer! in the ma$ing of ne% de&i e! or produ t! for audio !u h a! headphone!# !pea$er!# radio!# et . It al!o ha! a ou!ti ian!# audiologi!t!# a ademi !# and other topi ! that are related to audio. 5ne of the thing! that I li$e a"out audio engineering i! that it4! not that hard. 3ou an e&en pra ti e at home if "u' and do%nload the right e(uipment !o that 'ou are prepared !o %hen it ome! do%n for 'ou to find the right jo" or the right ! hool for 'ou. 3ou might thin$ a"out mo&ing to another !tate far from %hi h 'ou li&e to do 'our jo" and "e happ' a"out. So if 'ou don4t mind mo&ing out of the !tate# or mind going 2 'ear! of ollege or le!!# or ma$ing mu!i and ha&ing fun doing it I %ould re ommend thi! areer hoi e. The main rea!on that I hoo!e audio engineering a! m' engineering topi i! "e au!e it !eem! e* iting.
