The SET programmes

Three disciplines, one learning model. Pick the one closest to you — each course page sets out the curriculum, the practical components and the entry requirements.

The Budapest campus runs three programmes: sound engineer, media composer and media photographer. All three are built on the same semi-virtual concept: you work through the theory online at your own pace, then build the practical side on in-person weekends in a studio environment.

The sound engineer training is divided into six modules, so the structure stays readable even if you are new to the field.
