Electronic Engineering with Music Technology Systems, BEng (Hons)

This programme equips you with essential practical experience, scientific knowledge, and engineering skills to pursue a career in music technology or audio engineering. Through access to state-of-the-art facilities, including computer design labs, multi-speaker surround sound systems, multimedia studios, and an anechoic chamber, you will explore key technologies such as synthesisers, MIDI, audio recording, sampling, and digital signal processing. Beyond applying these in music production, you will leverage engineering expertise to innovate and develop next-generation audio solutions. Individual and group projects throughout the degree build practical, organisational, management, and business skills, preparing you for roles as an audio engineer, designer, researcher, or manager in the dynamic audio and music sector.The BEng is a fully accredited engineering course that integrates professional electronics with audio and music technology, drawing on expertise from the University of York AudioLab. It is identical to the BEng Music Technology Systems, allowing you to select your graduation title based on career preferences. All courses offer an optional year in industry, typically before your final year, to gain workplace experience and explore opportunities. The school assists with placements and provides ongoing support from an academic staff member.
