The attributes you gain will be attractive to employers from the creative industries and are particularly relevant for careers in sound design and sound production, contemporary music, games, theatre, film and television. Previous graduates have built successful careers in broadcast media, digital games and immersive media production, and the wider creative industries, while many of our graduates undertake successful portfolio careers as sound practitioners and artists in their own right.
