Enjoyed catching concerts by Lady Gaga and Super Junior as well as the F1 Night Race in Singapore? Then, don’t forget to thank the backstage heroes who helped put together the awesome audio-visual spectacle!

In fact, these guys are also behind the scenes of every mega-concert, live event, radio or TV programme ever staged. If you would like to join their ranks, then our Diploma in Audio-visual Technology (AVT) will teach you everything you need.

You will learn about live performance system integration and management, stage lighting, live sound control, and digital media applications. What’s more, you’ll get to hone these skills in facilities featuring the latest hifi equipment and media technologies.

If you are musically inclined, you can also be involved in stage sound design and music composition for live performances. Our new elective modules will prepare you for that.

AVT’s strong emphasis on hands-on training also means that you will get to go on internships with leading industry players like Esplanade and MediaCorp from as early as your first year!
