Education: Best place for Audio Engineering?


I'm currecntly an undergrad student at the University of Kentucky with a amjor of electrical engineering (and minors in
mechanical engineering and math). I'm very interested in audio
engineering-particularly speaker design- and it has been my goal all along to do graduate work in the audio engineering field. However, I can't really find universities offering programs in the field. There are a great number of professionals in the audio engineering field, and surely these professionals are receiving some type of specialized education
in the field. I'm just wondering, is there some sort of educational haven for audio engineering that I'm just not aware of? Or do people simply do things like interships with corporations? I simply have no idea where to start!

Thanks for your input,

I'm a grad student in physics at the university of texas. The mechanical engineering department here does some acoustics, but i'm not sure how audio related their research is. http://www.me.utexas.edu/

There are also other opportunities available here. At least in physics, i have the option of doing research under a research scientist at a research institute owned by the university. They do have several acoustics experiments on going there. http://wwwext.arlut.utexas.edu/researching/index.html

If nothing else, UT is a really good school. Top 10 physics and math, and i'm pretty sure their engineering is at least top 20. Also, austin is a great place to live. Much better than kentucky ; )(i'm from indiana)
