This programme is aimed at those with considerable practical experience of sonic art, electronic composition or sound design who wish to pursue further study by researching a particular area of these fields.
Students will engage richly and creatively with the social, cultural, technical and theoretical aspects of one or more of the following:
-
Sound design
-
Sonic art

Digital composition and performance

Creative coding for sound
Programme format
You will learn through a research-methods course, via selections from an interdisciplinary menu of taught course options, and with supervision from a supervisory team active in your research area.
Usually, students will participate in 4 taught modules (80 credits) available from electives across the institution. These are selected to assist in the development of skills related to the research project. The remaining 100 credits are dedicated to the development of your own research practice which will result in a Masters level thesis of around 15,000 words, accompanied by significant practical research outputs where appropriate.
