University of Montana Catalog 2024-2025

Sonic Arts Certificate

The Sonic Arts certificate offers students an opportunity to develop skills, technique, and theory in audio and sound. The directed sequence of courses assumes students are coming in with no formal training in sound or audio and allows them to acquire knowledge around the science of sound, the practical applications of working with sound, capturing and manipulating sound for artistic purposes, and basic studio techniques.
