Undervisningsformer:
Kontakt med bransje og næringsliv har alltid vært en viktig forutsetning både for å sikre at studentene får en så praktisk relatert undervisning som mulig, men også for å sikre at utdanningen til enhver tid er oppdatert etter bransjens behov. Gjennom utdanningen vil du bidra i driften av et studentdrevet plateselskap, utføre oppdrag for kunder og være tett på moderne musikkbransje gjennom både timelærere og gjester, oppdragsgivere og bedriftsbesøk. Denne nærheten til bransjen vil gjøre det enklere for studentene å knytte kontakter og bygge nettverk i arbeidslivet. Undervisningsformen varieres mellom prosjekter, veiledning, forelesninger, presentasjoner, workshops, m.m.
