The Music and Audio Production programme is designed for musicians from a wide range of musical backgrounds interested in the production of musical content in both the recording studio and live performance environments. Students will gain practical knowledge and experience of recording, editing, mixing and mastering music using professional studio facilities. Working alongside leading music industry professionals students will gain additional sound engineering experience in a sound reinforcement context and develop musical practice in composition, general musicianship and (optionally) musical performance.

The programme prepares students for a wide range of possible career paths including studio and venue audio engineering, broadcasting, audiology, acoustic consultancy, artist management, concert-venue management, audio system support, education and other areas of the music and audio industries.
