As digital listening experiences expand, and listeners engage on different platforms and in different locations, sound quality and delivery is paramount. With this degree course, you'll develop the professional knowledge to experience and deliver audio at the highest standard.
With a focus on your career and real-world applications, you'll explore a range of audio modules which will equip you with the skills to build a career in the music and audio industries. Combining audio engineering theory and studio-based delivery, you'll critically evaluate new audio developments and apply them creatively.
