Become a Member of the Acoustical Society of America
The Acoustical Society of America (ASA) invites individuals with a strong interest in
any aspect of acoustics including (but not limited to) physical,
engineering, oceanographic, biological, psychological, structural, and architectural, to apply for membership. This very broad diversity of interests, along with the opportunities provided for the exchange of knowledge and points of view, has become one of the Society's unique and strongest assets. From its beginning in 1929, ASA has sought to serve the widespread interests of its members and the acoustics community in all branches of acoustics, both theoretical and applied.
ASA publishes the premier journal in the field and annually holds two exciting meetings that bring together colleagues from around the world.
