Music Technology (Recording/Music Production) prepares students for work in artistic, technical or producer/director capacities in music and music-related media industries. Music technology shapes all the music you hear, whether it is a software program listening to music and displaying chords and tempo or your cell phone identifying a song and recommending similar artists. Students are practically trained for work as music technologists and audio engineers. The training balances the development of artistic and creative skills with the mastery of technical skills, and entails application of modern and new technologies in the music industry.
