UCD AES Denver Student Section
The Audio Engineering Society is an international professional organization,
and is the only professional society devoted exclusively to Audio technology.
Its worldwide membership includes engineers, scientists, executives, educators,
and students, involved in every aspect of the audio industry. The AES promotes
advances in audio technology through annual technical meetings and exhibitions
of professional equipment, and through the "Journal of the Audio Engineering
Society", the proffesional archival publication in the audio industry.
We are fortunate to have a student section of the Audio Engineering
Society here at UCD; one of only 20 AES student sections in the world.
Through membership in the AES, we have access to oppurtunities and invaluable
resources that would not otherwise available. The National AES Headquarters
provides our student section with funding to promote activities such as
this newsletter, bringing in Audio Professionals as guest speakers, tours
of local Audio production facilities, and many other valuable experiences.
The UCD Audio Engineering Society holds monthly meetings here
on campus, and (whenever possible) at local professional audio production
facilities. Meetings may also include guest speakers from all facets of
the audio industry. Monthly meetings provide a chance for members to exchange
ideas with other students and professionals within our audio community.
Meetings involve discussion and planning of activities such as tours, guest
speaker invitation; and anouncement of local and outside engineering opportunities.
Membership is just $35.00 for an entire year and includes many
benifits. Members recieve a ten issue per year subsrciption to "The Journal
of the Audio Engineering Society" (the professional publication of the
Audio industry). Additionaly, the AES publishes a directory of all members
nationwide. This can be a valuable link to industry professionals, and
is available only to AES members.

UCD Audio Engineering Program SPARS Membership
The UCD Music Engineering Program also maintains an active membership in
SPARS, the Society of Professional Audio Recording Services. SPARS membership
is held by major Audio industry businesses nationwide, many of which offer
internship programs to students of engineering programs who also hold SPARS
mebership (such as ours). SPARS has also funded student travel to various
conventions around the country. Two of our own UCD students were fortunate
enough to recive funds to travel to the SPARS Business Convention in L.A.
this last summer, and four UCD Music Engineering students were recipients
of SPARS Student Travel Grants for travel to the 99th Annual AES Convention
in New York this October. Our membership in SPARS has provided students
with otherwise unatainable opportunities, and we are very grateful.
