Fascinating that I'm actually finally able to help answer a question in this subreddit. Going into my Senior year as a TVR major with an audio concentration. There is another sound recording major through the music school that is a lot more extensive but it's targeted mostly toward mixing music whereas im more into SFX, Foley, etc.

I didn't initially come to the school for that major but I certainly got attracted to it coming into my sophomore year so I made the switch. From someone who knew nothing coming in, I have to say I really have learned a lot. Problem is, the curse of sound usually being a second thought in the industry trickles down to the budgeting for the park school. This next part may be more extensive than you have asked for, but I'm just going to give it to you straight.

Right around the time I came into the school they hired a new professor to head the audio department and he really has made great strides. He has turned the program around from its dilapidated state 5 years or so ago and continues to push for more budgeting.

Unfortunately, the school has put a cap on how much funding the audio department gets (the school has only so much room and favors to give most funding to broadcasting). Because of this, a sort of plateau has happend with the growth of the program. The professor heading the program tried to fight the plateau, but without them budging he realized it was time to throw in the towel so he's leaving the school within a year or so.

Of course this doesn't matter to me, but someone in your position I'm not so sure. As is, the program is awesome in my opinion and I love being in it. The thing is, it is looking like the department will be taken over by a new head so who knows what it would look like 5 years down the road.
