New technologies and techniques are opening up a whole world of creative possibilities for music creation and production. Understanding these and how they can be applied enables you to play an important role in the creative process. It also equips you with the ability to explore and discover technological and musical innovations of the future.
This course is focused on the computing aspects of music and audio and is ideal if you have no formal musical training but an interest in the technology behind music. You will learn basic engineering skills and the technological aspects of music with an emphasis on the creative application of technology. From learning basic recording techniques, you will progress to the science of sound, acoustics and recording in depth.
In your third year, you will have the option of spending a year on a salaried placement. For students on placement, there is an opportunity to complete a professional practice module and be awarded 15 level 3 credits. The professional experience module is shown in the option list for the final year, but is actually completed during the year out. |
