Music Technology BA(Hons) single honours

Our students are from a diverse range of backgrounds, and come with a variety of previous music technology experiences.
We study a diverse range of popular and experimental styles focussing on the creative and technical dimensions of music technology. A range of core skills are fundamental to the curriculum: synthesis, sampling and sequencing; sound engineering, digital and analogue music production, live sound reinforcement; critical and diagnostic listening; programming; audio post-production; sound design; performance with technology, music technology in education; and instrument building.
The course capitalises on the vibrant and multi-cultural music scene in London and on our industry partnerships, including those with the Science Museum and the British Library.
The course is taught using the unique and prestigious analogue Visconti Studio.
Kingston is just 30 minutes from central London, a major centre of music in the UK and home to major music venues, studios and labels.
The course focuses on developing an understanding of theory through creative music practice.
Supportive staff with industry experience will help you develop to your full potential.
Optional modules in the second and third year allow you to follow your own interests and career goals.

You will have the opportunity to study a foreign language, free of charge, during your time at the University on a not-for-credit basis as part of the Kingston Language Scheme. Options currently include: Arabic, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Mandarin, Portuguese, Russian and Spanish.
