Course Overview

Do you love sound? Have you always wondered how audio equipment actually works? Are you ready to dive into the exciting world of recording technology and applied electronics? If you’ve answered yes to these three questions, the audio engineering technology program may be right for you.

We believe our students should be skilled in analog and digital electronics before entering the field of audio. Through our audio engineering technology program, students learn the ins and outs of audio equipment not only by using tools to create professional music productions, but also by pulling those very tools apart to learn how to maintain, repair, and design them.
