Le Mans is home to a number of acoustic activities recognised for their high level of expertise. Research structures, educational institutions and specialised companies form an ecosystem around sound and its applications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The acoustics laboratory of the University of Le Mans, the LAUM, a joint CNRS research unit (LAUM – UMR CNRS 6613), is at the origin of this centre of excellence. A leading research unit recognised worldwide, the LAUM is the core around which other structures have been built.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Bridges have been built between research, teaching and the economic world. Specialised companies have found in Le Mans a favourable ground for their activities and their development. Acoustics is also used in music and the arts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This group of players and the level of expertise of each one constitutes a source of attractiveness and influence for the region. Sound has become an element of the identity of Le Mans, which occupies a central place in this field.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
