Introduction
Pulse College is very excited to partner with Griffith College, Ireland’s largest independent third level institution, to deliver this brand new, unique and industry-focused BA (Hons) Degree in Audio and Music Technology.
Recording Studios, Live Venue’s, TV & Radio, Post-Production, Live Performance: It is now essential to be skilled in an array of disciplines to become successful in the audio industry.
It is with these various industry disciplines in mind that we have designed a new BA (Hons) Degree in Audio & Music Technology in partnership with Ireland’s largest independent third level institution, Griffith College.
Aimed at musicians, DJ’s, computer music hobbyists, and general lovers of music, this programme will train you with the skills required to succeed as a modern-day Audio Professional.
Course Content
We will teach you how to record and produce music both in the home studio and in large recording studios. You will learn about live sound from both a performance and technical perspective.
The modern “studio engineer” can record, mix and master audio, but also help produce. Whether it is programming drum parts or string sections or even being on stage, performing with a band.
Please note you do not need to be a musician to be accepted onto this course but someone who is passionate and enthusiastic about all things music.
As with all our courses, hands-on experience is crucial to learning. This course is no different. Our students will be trained in Windmill Lane Recording Studios and will also be required to put on live shows and performances throughout the duration of the course.
