While the goal of the national chapter of the Acoustical Society of America is “to increase and diffuse the knowledge of acoustics and its practical applications” – the Narragansett Chapter is chartered with promoting acoustic interests in Southern New England and building relationships and contacts for those practicing or interested in the field of Acoustics.
We welcome the expansion of the chapter with the addition of new members, students, or suggestions for speakers and meeting venues.
