The Music Technologies programme encourages creative experimentation and helps to discover ideas that I can later put into practice. The programme is comprehensive, allowing to get to know different branches of the specialty. What impresses me most are the teachers who share their professional experience and their lectures that encourage me to go further and apply my knowledge in real life.
At the university, I not only studied, but also participated in the activities of the Students’ Union played in the KTU orchestra while also having a job. This study programme is most suitable for those interested in sound recording, production, sound design and the application of technology to music. What I liked most about my studies was that I could spend long hours in a sound recording studio.
The need for music technology professionals is high as the events’ industry expands, projects become more complex and new technologies require professionals who can keep pace with modern innovations and the latest equipment. KTU students are welcome in business and industry during their studies, so they have the opportunity to take an interest in their favourite fields and thus quickly achieve high positions at their job places.
This course is taught entirely in Lithuanian, which means that all academic activities are conducted in this language.
The Music Technologies programme does not require a musicology exam. However, the grade is added as an extra point (with a coefficient of 0.15).
KTU Music Technologies is chosen by students who value the opportunity to work with professional equipment and software, to acquire theoretical and practical skills in music, sound engineering and audiovisual technologies, to participate in creative projects and to prepare for a career in sound studios, events or music production.
