Biography

Dr. Eoin King is Lecturer of Mechanical Engineering. He has extensive experience in the areas of acoustics, noise control, transportation and urban sustainability. He is currently Managing Editor of Noise/News International, a quarterly publication from the International Institute of Noise Control Engineering.

He is a member of the European Commission Noise Expert Group, and in the past has served as member of the Board of the Institute of Noise Control Engineering (USA), and the International WELL Building Institute’s Sound Concept Advisory Panel.

He is author/co-author of more than 70 academic journal papers, book chapters, conference papers and reports, including one book. He holds a B.A. B.A.I. Mechanical Engineering (2003), Postgraduate Diploma in Statistics (2007) and PhD (2008) in Environmental Acoustics all from Trinity College Dublin, Ireland. Following EU postdoctoral research on noise assessment and control, he established a start-up noise and vibration consulting company before moving to the only US university that offers specialist undergraduate programs in acoustics and music.

Outside of academia he has coached women’s rugby, organized a TEDX event, and completed the NYC marathon.
