Hi All,

Just wanted to make you aware of opportunities for PhD and Masters study at the 
University of Birmingham. We offer:

The chance to join a department which has been a leader in the field for over 
three decades.
Expertise in acousmatic composition, live-coding, mixed instrumental/electronic 
music, large-scale spatialisation, network music, SuperCollider development, 
and phonology/soundscape composition
The opportunity to work with BEAST, our world-renowned concert system, capable 
of presenting electronic music in circa 100 discrete channels 
(http://www.beast.bham.ac.uk <http://www.beast.bham.ac.uk/>)
Access to amazing facilities in the £16 million Bramall Music Building:
Six cutting edge multichannel composition studios
The Dome Rehearsal Room, featuring the 30+ channel BEASTdome system
The Elgar Concert Hall, arguably the finest and most flexible (particularly for 
electronic music) space of its kind in a UK university
Throughout featuring bespoke acoustic design by Nick Edwards (Symphony Hall 
Birmingham, Symphony Centre Dallas, Royal Shakespeare Theatre)
Excellent equipment resources (recorders, microphones, etc.)
Opportunities to work with world class visiting ensembles (e.g. BCMG annually; 
Exaudi, Hermes, and Fidelio trio in recent years) in regular workshop sessions

More info on our research culture, staff, and facilities is available here:

which offers up to full scholarships with a living allowance for UK and EU 
students, and opportunities for co-supervision across institutions in the 
consortium.
