Find Engineering School

what do u do after getting a bacholer in music from a college when my major was Music Recording/Technology Concentration.. i am still in high school and was considering this major..but after u get that degree what do most people do? do they open there own studio, or apply to work at ones???? how much do audio engineers usually get paid

I am a music therapy major, but I know a bunch of SRT (Sound Recording Technology) majors, so I’m gonna bullet stuff here for you:

-as for pay, I/we don’t know where it starts, or even a general salary, because it is different for so many places, but ,like in any job, it takes time to move up the ladder into higher paying positions. But, it’s recommend you get internships during breaks while you are in college. It makes getting into the workforce a ton easier.

-as for opening your own studio, it depends on your money situation. It takes a lot of money to create a studio, to build it and to get equipment. Then you have to advertise. Most people work at other places first until they get enough to start something up for themselves. BUT, you can always do side projects/live recording and stuff like that on the side with smaller equipment that is not as expensive to purchase. You can even travel with a lot of that.

-a lot of this is what you find out at college. You figure out what you like better. you might like traveling and recording, and may never want to set up a studio. You may end up wanting to teach SRT as a professor. It all depends on what your personal opinions are.

I (we) wish you good luck!

I'm in the process of choosing my colleges for the upcoming year, and I really want to attend Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore. I really loved the campus visit and felt like all of the things the admissions officer was talking about connected with me. However, I wish to major in Chemical Engineering, or perhaps another Chemistry field. I know Johns Hopkins has a strong Biology/Biomedical Engineering field, but I don't think they're too strong in the Chemical Engineering field.

Someone once told me that the classes required for both were not too different, but I'm not too sure about this.

I really do love Chemistry, I can deal with Physics, although I prefer Chem, and Calculus I'm currently learning. Should I decide to apply to Johns Hopkins even though I don't know if their Chem fields are strong? Or should I apply to somewhere like UC Berkeley, which is ranked top in the Chemical Engineering field? I've never been to Berkeley, and this is for Early Decision.

Well, Johns Hopkins is a good university and i'm sure they have a good program for what you want to study. As long as the university you go to does not suck, then you should be fine. I currently go to a university that is not strong in my field, however, students that graduate from this field get hired to really good jobs. Going to Berkeley should be really cool though. I heard it's really nice. Just choose whatever u think it is more convenient for you. I think both universities would work just fine.

By the way, as long as you get your degree, that's all it matters. Classes might be slightly different, but in the end you will really learn everything you need to know when you start practicing in your career. Just focus on getting really good grades. Good Luck with your decision!

My fiance leaves Feburary 23, but when he is done with basic he is going straight to A school. But I don’t know the name of the base exactly where its at or anything and neither does he. All i know is that it is in or around Charleston. Also when he gets done with basic in April would he be able to take time for our ceremony? Because they told us he would go straight to Charleston? I’m really worried about all this and need good advice on these things also housing etc. Also whats it like being a Navy wife? I know its going to be hard and all but what do you do when they leave how do you get past that pain of them being gone?
-Just need help

Im from Charleston and im familiar with the base- its the Nuclear school on the naval weapons station in charleston,sc. After he leaves bootcamp, he will go to school. But for Nuclear- its a very long school. Because he is going to school, there is no leave time between basic and school. the only way he will be able to take some time is if he has a time period before his class starts. As you are not yet married, he will reside in base barracks. being a sailor myself, being gone isnt so bad, i mean depends on his duty he might not be gone so much on his next duty station. All in all, no matter what, be supportive and be behind him 100% as he goes through his career and things will go smoothly.
