Thank you.
This is an interesting pedagogical development to see happening. I teach a first year undergraduate core course in Electroacoustic Studies. Being foundational one objective is to provide students with the vocabulary of the discipline. To this end, the course outline contains a list of almost 600 words / terms that each student is to have developed an understanding of by the end of the 26 weeks of classes. The terms are drawn from acoustics, psychoacoustics, electroacoustics, perception, composition, analysis and analog synthesis.
I would be interested in a basic 'word list' of terms that a first year graduate student should be familiar with.

Ten years ago, as a postdoc, I was tasked with making sure that the grad students at BU’s Hearing Research Center had a firm grounding in the field in which they were working. Attached is the syllabus of the class that resulted. I think there might be some new additions if I taught it again, but the history has not changed. Given that the main interest of most of the students was on binaural hearing, that was featured heavily. Feel free to share this.

What are papers in auditory psychophysics and neuroscience that every graduate student should have read? The McDermott lab at MIT is putting together a reading group to go through these papers and we thought you folks might have excellent suggestions of papers to add.
