Broadcast Audio Technology BSc (Hons) Broadcast Computing BSc (Hons)
Broadcast Audio Technology is the
study of how sound is applied in
radio, TV, and web distribution
industries. This Skillset and BKSTS
accredited course will give you a
broad understanding of broadcast
technologies. Broadcast computing is the study of
how ICT is applied to the broadcasting
industry. This Skillset and BKSTS
accredited course will give you a
broad understanding of emerging
platforms including TV streaming.
Futures
Audio engineers often work in
television, radio, the wider media
and communications industries from
audio systems design, installation,
maintenance and support, to studio
and location production, post-
production and transmission.
The Course
This course introduces broadcast
audio technology and the changing
landscape of production and delivery.
You will understand all levels of the
audio broadcast industry, from
production equipment and systems
through to transmission technology.
This course is accredited by both
Creative Skillset and BKSTS (British
Kinematograph, Sound and Television
Society). Our broadcast engineering
students are highly sought after and
many are working part-time in
industry before they graduate.
Year One
You will build knowledge in
audio broadcast technology and
television production alongside
developing studio and equipment
skills. You will learn about the
technology, the broadcast industry
and the various roles within it.
We encourage you to start thinking
about your contextual studies
research throughout this year.
Year Two
You will study intermediate
technology and engineering
skills, as well as audio and acoustic
principles. You will develop your
ideas and entrepreneurial skills and
spend time gaining key experience
in post production and working in
collaboration with other students.
Year Three
You will study advanced broadcast
audio technology and produce a
final major engineering project
showcasing your work to industry.
We ask you to show your contextual
studies research in a long form
dissertation.
Your learning will be focused on
tutorials, practical exercises and
projects guided by teaching staff and
external broadcasting professionals.
Our graduates leave with the skills
to cope with whatever changes the
broadcast industry will experience.
