Abstract
PHARM (PHysical Acoustics Research and Mentoring) has been operating partially with support from a MEG grant since 2009. The primary purpose of this mentoring environment is to provide undergraduates in physics and applied physics opportunities to gain experience in fundamental areas of physical acoustics. Within the acoustics community, “physical acoustics” refers to a number of subfields (e.g., outdoor sound propagation, aeroacoustics, nonlinear acoustics). These research areas are relatively new at BYU. During this phase of the mentored research environment, a large number of students have been able to participate in projects related to these areas. Many of these projects have been and are being documented for presentation at conferences and submission of manuscripts to peer-reviewed journals. These projects will be described in greater detail below.
