Audio Design (BA)

The Bachelor's programme Audio Design enables students to create immersive sound worlds, 3D sound scenarios and compositions for time-based and interactive media such as films, radio plays and games as well as sound logos for innovative brands (sound branding). Students conceptualise and programme software- and hardware-based musical instruments and create audiovisual installations. The audio designer's instrument is his or her computer. In the course of their studies, students get to know the basics of sound design, sound engineering and music. In the first four semesters, they gain aesthetic, compositional, sound design, sound engineering and music technology skills. From the sixth semester onwards, students develop these skills further and specialise by choosing projects from the areas of music technology and art, and music production as well as sound design and composition. Artistic individuality, individual support and practical implementation of what has been learned are key elements of the BA Audio Design programme.
