Bachelor in Musikproduktion

If you’re a musician who may not necessarily specialize in a conventional 'instrument', or might recognize their main music-making device as a laptop or electronic instrument, then this may be the course you’ve been looking for. While other courses in music technology approach education from an audio engineering or sound production perspective, our Music Production major aims to grow your musicianship and performance technique alongside other musicians.

As you write, record, and produce music you will learn to articulate your artistic choices and work collaboratively with other creatives. Learn to record acoustic and synthesized instruments and play with different techniques and effects to manipulate sound. Become fluent in DAW editing, arranging, and mixing. Receive one-on-one lessons with a production mentor who will help you develop your own creative portfolio to take to the world.

The Bachelor's degree is designed to help you create strong, focused compositions and productions that capture your creative musical ideas across a variety of styles. It will help you understand the principles of recording and music production, Film and TV music, inventive applications of music technology, principles of top-lining, and writing and arranging for a variety of ensembles using acoustic and electronic instrumentation.

While talent will get you far, to be successful, it is vital as a producer and music-maker to be ‘tech savvy’ and skilled with industry-standard software – Avid Pro Tools, Logic Pro X, MaxMSP, and Ableton Live for recording, and Sibelius for crafting high quality notated scores. The Bachelor's degree also explores channels of music distribution, monetization, and copyright, and on graduation, you will have completed a rich portfolio of your own productions and songs as a showcase of your talent.
