About this course
Sound, light, and live event engineering is the technical backbone of the live events industry, encompassing the design, operation, and management of the audio, lighting, and production systems that make concerts, festivals, theatre productions, corporate events, and broadcasts possible. The live events sector depends on engineers and technicians who can work with increasingly sophisticated technology under the pressure of real performances, who understand both the creative purposes that technology serves and the technical precision needed to make it work reliably. At the University of Derby, this part-time programme has been delivered for over 25 years, producing graduates who work across the industry and around the world at the highest levels. The programme includes a foundation year for those who need additional preparation, a sandwich placement year for extended industry experience,
