Sound engineering, capturing, mixing - is that exactly your world? Our Bachelor's degree in Audio Design teaches you how to acoustically shape the world with sound and speech - from blockbuster soundtracks to electric car sound design.
Designed sound surrounds us in almost all areas of our lives. In this programme you will explore the physical properties of sound and learn how to technically design and manipulate it. You will produce soundtracks for various media such as film, animation and computer games, you will investigate the powerful effects of sound in different environments and become familiar with the entire acoustic communication chain - from the sound source to the recipient.
Audio designers compose music of various genres, create digital sound designs and acoustic special effects, realise speech productions and manage sound recordings with bands and ensembles. They write songs, orchestrate their own arrangements and develop digital musical instruments and apps. Audio designers work either freelance or are employed in a variety of industries.
The B.A. Audio Design offers excellent career opportunities in industries such as:
- Phono industry, labels, studios
- Advertising, media and design agencies
- Audio software companies
- Production companies, TV and radio stations, radio play publishers
- Game producers
They work, for example, as:
- Sound designers
- Music producers
- Audio engineers
