Entry Requirements For This Course
Entry Criteria
The normal entry requirements are:
(a) A degree or equivalent in an appropriate discipline.
(b) For graduates of non-UK universities, sufficient command of spoken and written English to meet the demands of the programme (eg IELTS 6.5 or equivalent).
Due to the nature of the programme and the need to be familiar with certain concepts and operating principles of sound recording and audio engineering, students would normally have studied previously in these areas, or be able to provide evidence of sufficient experience working in this area with appropriate hardware and software.
Example of this would be:
- a graduate of the UWTSD Music Technology degree;
- a graduate of a digital media degree course that has significant AV content; and,
- a person who has gained a degree in an unrelated subject but who has had sufficient exposure to the audio industry, or recording studios, to be familiar with the requisite concepts.
Equivalent qualifications will be considered for entry onto the programme. For example, a candidate with a good HND, together with at least five years' relevant experience, would be considered. The candidate would be expected to provide evidence to support his/her application.
