在这里学什么？

The MA in Sound Arts and Industries is a one-of-a-kind program, combining sound theory and history with modern sound practice using the unique capabilities of Northwestern as a major research university in the Chicago area.

Students interested in podcasting can learn radio history, documentary and storytelling, while enjoying the opportunity to attend local festivals and produce work of their own, interning with producers and broadcasters. Students interested in pursuing film sound can develop advanced techniques and take master classes with professionals. Professionals who specialize in one field of sound practice can springboard into another medium, enriching their portfolio. Students from the sciences can learn more about science communication, producing documentaries about work in laboratories and beyond. Scholars interested in pursuing PhD work in sound studies can work with top scholars, writers and archivists, becoming part of a new focus on sonic cultures across the disciplines.

3 Core Courses (1 credit each) 6 Elective Courses (1 credit each) 1 Study in Sound 1 Summer Internship (3 credits)

TOTAL: 12 credits

Courses

The three core courses of the MA curriculum – in sound studies, sound production and sound science – embody the innovative approach to sound that is only available at Northwestern. You will work with artists and designers to develop skills at recording and mixing audio. You will acquire deep knowledge of the culture and politics of sound from scholars and historians. You will study with researchers to understand the neurophysiology of hearing. You will also learn about the workings of the sound industries from Northwestern faculty as well as visiting artists and executives.

When you leave the program, you will have an understanding of sound that extends from the neurons in your brain, to the waves in the air, to performances that convene audiences, to the technologies and industries that carry those sounds around the world.
