University of Hull
The University of Hull runs a three-year BA (Hons) Music Production degree from its main Cottingham Road campus, plus an MMus with a production and technology specialism at postgraduate level. The university was founded in 1927 as University College Hull, gaining its Royal Charter in 1954. Students record in the flagship Duality Recording Studio and an ambisonic 3D sound studio, work with Pro Tools and Ableton Live, and can also use the 400-seat Middleton Hall concert venue.
The course is accredited by JAMES, the joint scheme run by the Association of Professional Recording Services and the Music Producers Guild, and includes partnerships with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra and Opera North. Entry is by A level, BTEC or an equivalent Level 3 qualification, with the university stating it looks at the whole application rather than grades alone.
Teaching staff include Dr Rowan Oliver, a former drummer for Goldfrapp who still works as an international session musician, and Dr Niall Thomas, a record production researcher who produces, mixes and plays bass for the band Dead Witches.
