Master of Arts in Music Technology (by research)

Program Overview

Our MA in Music Technology (by research) is aimed at research-focused graduates with experience in music technology or audio engineering – both high level creators interested in composition, production and contemporary aesthetic approaches to audio, and those who wish to develop tools for other content, including composers, performers and analysts.

This course is specifically focused on developing, assessing and applying technology to current problems and questions in music practice and analysis. It is aimed at both high-level creators interested in composition, production and contemporary aesthetic approaches to audio, and those wishing to develop tools for other content, including composers, performers and analysts.

Guided by your supervisor, you'll work through a series of structured elements, with your final submission being either:

a dissertation of between of 30,000 and 40,000 words on your registered topic, accompanied by a comprehensive resource list of relevant materials (including software, production work, internet and audio-visual resources as relevant); or
a portfolio of work: between three and five technologically mediated compositions for any instrument, voice, ensemble, audio media or multimedia, as agreed with the candidate's supervisor and presented to a professional standard. Each composition will be supported by appropriate commentary of around 2,500 words, discussing the work, the process of composition and related details that situate the composition in a research context. You will also submit a resource list of relevant materials.
