Coventry University

Coventry University's music department runs two production-focused degrees out of its Priory Street campus: BSc (Hons) Music and Audio Production and a postgraduate Music and Sound Production MA. The BSc covers recording, arranging and producing with technology, live sound, sound design and interactive audio for games and film, taught across five recording studios (Audient, Yamaha Nuage, Neve and SSL desks) and an iMac suite running Pro Tools, Logic Pro, Ableton Live, Max and Sibelius. Students share a common first year with related music courses before splitting into specialist modules such as game audio, sound design and mixing/mastering in years two and three, with an optional placement year.

The BSc costs £9,790/yr for UK students (£20,800 international); the one-year Music and Sound Production MA costs £11,700/yr UK (£19,500 international) and runs six 30-credit modules including a Dolby Atmos 9.1.4 studio module. Both are backed by real facilities rather than just marketing copy: SSL and Neve consoles, a VR/AR immersive studio and 24-hour library access.

Coventry University holds a TEF 2023 Gold overall rating and 5 QS Stars for Teaching and Facilities. The music course's own page cites recent graduates who have worked with Jaguar Land Rover, Mojang Studios (on Minecraft) and the BBC, and the MA carries an RSA (Royal Society for Arts) digital credential endorsement on completion.
