About NEUASA: We are the first national student organization of the Acoustical Society of America in Boston. Within the Society there are over 13 subcategories of acoustics ranging from underwater to architectural. NEUASA strives to build a cross-disciplinary community on campus for students who are interested in acoustics and to provide an environment that enables first hand experience and sharing of ideas.
