Does any of your kids double major in computer/engineering and music?

<p>I know a young man who did this, very successfully, at University of Miami. He has a music engineering patent and his own firm now (at age 27).</p>

<p>^^^my nephew is currently a soph at UMiami studying Music & Comp Sci</p>

<p>My S found a program at University of Hartford that is absolutely PERFECT for him:</p>

<p>[University</a> of Hartford Acoustical Engineering and Music](<a href=“http://www.hartford.edu/academics/AreasofStudy/UndergraduatePrograms-listingpage/Acoustical_Engineering_Music.aspx]University”>http://www.hartford.edu/academics/AreasofStudy/UndergraduatePrograms-listingpage/Acoustical_Engineering_Music.aspx)</p>

<p>It’s an ABET-accredited MechE program offerred in conjunction with the Hartt School. I believe that it’s the only undergrad program of its kind (but I could be mistaken)</p>

<p>Good info here…but this thread is TWO years old. Perhaps better to start a new thread or add to a more recent one?</p>

<p>The OP to this thread more than likely has their answer.</p>

<p>The program at CMU was the first that came to mind.</p>

<p>But what is his goal? To work as a musician that uses technology in his art? Or to get a CS degree while also improving music skills with the goal of working in a regular CS job while keeping music as a sideline (like perhaps playing in a band on weekends)? Something else?</p>

<p>(thumper, whooops, I didn’t notice that!!) :rolleyes:</p>
