Course detail
Course overview
As an integral part of the music technology course you will have direct access to a very diverse range of musicians who can be called upon for collaboration, recording and networking (contemporary, pop, jazz, western and classical). This extends to other schools where collaborations are possible with students from media, moving image (video and film), digital animation and games design backgrounds.

You can capitalise on these opportunities and expect to have a significantly enhanced CV before your course finishes.

All recording and live sound work will happen in the workshop time there is no requirement for you to book sound studios. However there will be access to the labs and the need for basic audio kit to use in the practical workshops.
