No. Malcolm is great. If can be more specific I might be able to help.

You need to ask yourself if you are willing to dive into a degree where studio recording acoustics is a very small part of the program. You will NOT learn how to design a studio on any acoustical program.

Studio design is just a small fraction of architectural acoustics. Check McGill Univ.

There are also some good online degrees.. if you already have a bachelor, you can do the module of a module of Room Acoustics at the Master in Acoustics at Salford Uni

Yes that is the one !

You can do a single module if needed. The numerical tecnnique module is also interesting since you fiddle a bit with Odeon but there is also stuff about transducers involved in other assignments
