BACHELOR OF SCIENCE
DIGITAL AUDIO TECHNOLOGY Audio is part of everything. While it is indisputable that sound is the soul of music, radio, movies, TV shows, commercial advertising, video games, virtual reality, and many other entertainment platforms, sound also plays a crucial role in today’s technology, such as computer applications, electronic smart devices, and even electric vehicles.
USV’s Bachelor of Science in Digital Audio Technology introduces you to the broad discipline of music and audio production. This highly technical and hands-on program covers principles of music and audio, and applies that theory to individual and collaborative media production
projects. From music production, studio recording, and sound design, to audio for interactive media, this program prepares you with the vital skills needed to carve out your own niche in creative industries.
PROJECT-BASED LEARNING USV focuses on Project-Based Learning — a teaching method by which students gain knowledge and skills by investigating and responding to authentic, engaging, and complex challenges. As a result, you’ll not only develop technical knowledge and skills, but you’ll develop critical thinking, collaboration, creativity, and communication skills through USV’s MediaWorks™ program.
