About this course
You’ll gain the fundamental skills and experience required to obtain sustained employment in a range of relevant fields.

The programme is taught in the heart of Bath at the state-of-the-art Bath College Music Department which offers a range of creative and commercial possibilities in music.

While the University is committed to enabling Foundation Degree students to progress, in the event of there being insufficient places to accommodate all students who have applied, applicants will be subject to a selection process which will be based on achievement during the Foundation Degree. Previous students on this programme have gone on to study Honours Degrees in Creative Music Technology and Commercial Music. Students are also able to apply to other institutions (through UCAS) for entry onto second or third year of other related degree programmes.
160-200 UCAS Tariff points (eg BC; CD+AS c), with at least 60 points from a music-related qualification (including BTEC Music Practice / Music Technology / Performing Arts or A-level Popular Music, Music Technology or Music.
Candidates who do not have the standard qualifications but who are over 21 and have music industry experience will be considered.
