At the same time, you will learn about audio engineering fundamentals and how science and engineering underpins the technology used for sound creation and production.

    Throughout your studies, emphasis is placed upon gaining practical experience and applying it in professional studios to prepare you for your future career, whether that is within the media and music industries, or striking out on your own as an independent freelance creative.
