Ringtone gallery – RMIT Bachelor of Arts (Music Industry) students enrolled in a semester 1 course entitled ‘Concept Development’ use audio software such as Ableton Live, Protools, Logic and Audacity to make cool sounds for phones.

Student profiles
Bethany Osborne
Bachelor of Arts (Music Industry)
"So far the best thing I’ve experienced in the program is the amount of knowledge I’m gaining from some of the classes and then putting into place and seeing it benefit my musical pursuits outside of RMIT. So essentially I love the fact that I’m not just waiting for a certificate at the end of the program to say I can go and get a job now, I’m already putting the teachings into practice."

Bachelor of Arts (Music Industry)
"After a completing an Advanced Diploma of Music Performance, RMIT offered a pathway where I could complete my bachelor with an extra year of study. Last semester I completed a subject that involved completing weekly blog posts, a website and a written piece of work on music and media culture. This was challenging, especially the website part, but rewarding at the end of the semester."
