Course summary
Our research programme gives you the opportunity to mix with composers, sound designers, technologists, ethnomusicologists and theorists.
Overview
During your time with us, you become part of our specialist community, exchanging ideas and developing your own creative and intellectual interests, informed by expert academic staff within Music and Audio Technology.
Individual staff research interests cover a wide range of aspects of music composition, performance, ethnomusicology and music technology, and supervision is available in all of these areas. For these programmes, you have regular meetings with your supervisor as well as tuition in research methodologies in the early stages of your research. We regularly invite academic and professional specialists for guest lectures, workshops and special events relevant to students’ research.
