Tobias Behrens graduated in electrical engineering at the Technical University of Berlin in 1994 with a focus on technical acoustics and communications technologies. He then performed post graduate acoustic research on psycho-acoustic topics at ITA/Technical University, Berlin and ISVR / Southampton University, UK.

Before starting his career as an acoustical project engineer he was student tutor at ITA/Technical University, Berlin and did maintenance service and acoustic conceptions in professional sound recording studios in Berlin.

He brings with him 20 years of experience in professional planning and consulting on national and international projects. Room acoustic simulation and analysis, laboratory and field measurements, sound absorber technologies and electronic enhancement systems are main components of his recent work.

Important projects have been e.g. the National Assembly Hall in Hanoi/Vietnam, the organ concert hall of the Regional Philharmonic at Charkov/Ukraine, the New Central Building at the Leuphana University in Lüneburg, the Schlüterhof of the German Historical Museum (DHM) in Berlin, the glass hall as part of the Jewish Museum in Berlin and many others.
