The course is well-designed, seamlessly integrating practical and theoretical aspects alongside a focused research subject. The faculty is strong, offering valuable insights and support throughout the program. However, job prospects for music producers in Huddersfield are quite limited, which is a significant concern for students looking to enter the industry. Additionally, the university department lacks placement programs or internships, making it challenging to gain real-world experience. While the educational content is excellent, the lack of career support and opportunities in the local area is a notable drawback. read more

Overall a really good course. Some modules I feel could be better and maybe need to be reviewed such as Performance Skills 1. We had lots of confusion about assignments during the year and some I feel weren't even pertinent to the type of course I was doing. We have a tech store where we can loan out instruments and recording equipment, there's recording studios, practice rooms with grand pianos and two big performance halls. In Huddersfield uni, they encourage you to do a placement year between your second and third year, which I think it's great for work experience and to figure out what you'd like to do at the end of your degree. The only issue I had with the course is how I never met my personal tutor. He wasn't there the first 2 weeks and after that he was always busy or not there when I needed him. But the other tutors and head of department were always extremely helpful. read more

Excellent teachers who are leading figures in the field. Placement in final year is a great way of improving your employability and also a way of giving you an insight into the world of work. read more

I spent the previous 4 years working hard to get into a music course that would allow me to get into creative writing and composition. Be very careful about this university, it is mixed with the art block and is very avent garde. I had to drop out this course because it was so bad. The lecturers were very influenced by John Cage and used to review pieces of music (if you can call it that) composed for a blender (the kitchen item yes...) biggest waste of money in my life so far. This course is just about the music equilivant of that art you see with a chair in the middle of white room, or a splodge of paint in the centre of a canvas. Rubbish. read more
