Listening, programming and experimenting
그리고 academic programme covers audio signal processing, machine learning, music perception and computational approaches to music. A 20-credit thesis gives you a sustained project alongside 40 credits of taught study.
You might be interested in how software identifies a musical pattern, transforms a sound or supports a new instrument. These are examples of the kinds of questions that can help you decide whether the course’s technical focus matches your curiosity.
