Audio Engineering Diploma

Overview

SUMMARY

If you want to begin or further develop a career in the audio economy, this is where you will find the appropriate ways to do so. The Audio Engineering Diploma will qualify you for employment in a sound studio, in post-production for film and television, in radio, in sound design, in the game sound sector, or for live acoustics.

The Audio Engineering Programme provides qualifications for a professional career in the audio industry and will train graduates through a broad spectrum of studies to be flexible in a variety of directions: in the music industry, in radio, in film and television, theater, musicals, games or live events.

The study course is aimed at goal-oriented and creative people who are excited about working in a studio or at live events, who are interested in audio work in the film and television industries, and who have a flair for music.

The hands-on training parts of the Audio Engineering Programme can include creating a complete music production in the studio and the production of advertising spots.

 

 
 
 

The course will require five hours of classroom instruction a week combined with a recommended 20-25 hours a week of hands-on learning and training. An Audio Engineering Diploma can be earned in two years. Students will also be able to gain work experience through internships, working in the events sector, working in a sound studio, etc.
