The mechanisms for successful sound design in educational spaces to achieve acoustic comfort and their impact on academic efficiency: (The study of auditoriums in universities) by Mohamed Mahmoud Hassan Abd Elregal

“…Therefore, the research addresses a scientific methodology that assists architects in designing spaces that achieve sound comfort, with a particular focus on educational spaces, including a case study on lecture halls in universities. Introduction: Successful acoustic design of educational spaces is considered crucial to achieving sound comfort, and to accomplish this, it is necessary to study the users' needs alongside external and architectural factors, such as the types of noise that affect buildings, whether they are external or internal, and anticipate external noise levels using site analysis and determining the performance requirements of the building through simulation programs. …”

Evaluating Syndromic surveillance systems at institutions of higher education (IHEs): A retrospective analysis of the 2009 H1N1 influenza pandemic at two universities by May Larissa, Zhang Ying, Stoto Michael A

“…This pattern, seen in surveillance systems at these universities and to a lesser extent in data from other IHEs, most likely resulted from students bringing the virus back to campus from their home states coupled with a sudden increase in population density in dormitories and lecture halls. Through comparison of data from different syndromic surveillance data streams, paying attention to the likely biases in each over time, we have determined, at least in the case of the pH1N1 pandemic, that student health center data more accurately depicted disease transmission on campus at both universities during the Fall 2009 pandemic than other available data sources.…”
