Cert in Music

This certificate gives students core knowledge and skills for digital audio engineering. Every course in it also counts toward the college's associate degree in that field, so it works as a first step. It totals fourteen credits and is offered online and on campus, starting in fall, winter or spring. Possible work includes electronic music production, game audio, jingle writing, multimedia production and composition. The college points out that a large share of technicians in this area are self-employed. Students receive an overview of the tools and methods used in modern audio production, which they can later extend by continuing into the full degree. Students can find financial aid, scholarships and advising information through links on the program page, and fees are listed per quarter.
