"Not a day goes by that I don't use something I learned. My problem-solving approach is really refined. The opportunities I have are a result of the knowledge, skill set, and creativity I gained in the program. I get to design actual speakers that actual people will buy. It's really exciting."

—Tim DeYoung, 2012, Acoustic Design Engineer
