Cyberjaya, Selangor
Music is a thriving, fast-expanding business. With the proliferation of TV and radio stations, emergence of new media, and technology convergence, the music horizons are expanding beyond traditional perimeters. 

This is an exciting time of technological change and challenge. You can be part of this booming industry when you show the potential and passion for music. You are also in sync, if you have a keen interest in music technology.

Students pursuing the programme learn essential skills such as digital audio application, music arrangement and studio acoustics. In the process, you acquire cutting-edge skills as well as hands-on experience with an array of professional equipment. 

Another competitive advantage is the access and exposure to other campus facilities, and new learning dimensions in the form of mass communication, film and TV, broadcasting, multimedia and advertising.
