Overview

Music Technology is taught at a number of UK universities, and the entry terms are set department by department rather than nationally. It is a three year undergraduate degree, with the specialism widening as you move through the years.

Teaching in Music runs regular critique sessions where you present and defend your work in front of the group. We currently work with 3 universities on this course across 2 cities.

The lowest English requirement we hold on this course is IELTS 6.0, and departments asking more than that usually expect a stronger academic record too. Tuition ranges from £18,500 to £27,300 a year depending on the department, which is a real difference over the length of the course.

Applications open around a year ahead of the intake. Getting the documents together early is what keeps the September date realistic.

  • Performer or session musician
  • Music teacher or instrumental tutor
  • Composer or arranger
  • Music producer
  • Arts administrator
  • Music therapist, after further training

Where they work
