The Sibelius Academy is responsible for the highest level of teaching, research and artistic activities in the field of music in Finland. It trains artists, educators and music experts capable of independent artistic and expert work. The Professor of Music Technology is located in the Department of Music Technology, in the Faculty of Music Education, Jazz and Folk Music. The Department of Music Technology trains on the creative use of technologies for making and performing music in a variety of contexts, such as electroacoustic music, media and sound art, game and film music, music recording and sound production, various music genres, and music technology pedagogy. Upon graduation, students are widely placed in the public, private, or third sectors through their in-depth and varied education, or act as independent artists, work with recording and sound/music productions, venue amplification, media and sonic arts, or electro-acoustic music, build experimental instruments for sound art and performance, compose for games and films, create new tools and methods for integrating music and technology, or work as music technology pedagogues. Bachelor’s and master’s level education in music technology at the Sibelius Academy has been developed since 1998. Doctoral education in music technology was launched in 2010 in the form of arts, research and applied study programmes leading to a doctorate. The other teaching staff of the Department of Music Technology participates also in the implementation of doctoral studies as supervisors and experts on the doctoral evaluation committees. The work of the Department is characterised by cooperation and collaborations across the university and beyond and further reflected in various projects of research dissemination, in which students also have a strong role. The current research profile of the Department of Music Technology is versatile but at the same time a great synergy around the research on spatial audio in multiple areas has been created, and the Department aims to strengthen this research stream also in the future. The Department of Music Technology is active in disseminating their research and artistic projects in various societal environments. For instance, the multichannel Dome installation has been exhibited in multiple public spaces. The training is administered by the Department of Music Technology, which is currently composed of one professor, six lecturers, one senior assistant, one technical expert, a large number of part-time teachers, and some 40 bachelor’s and master’s students and ten doctoral students. In addition, the Department offers various music technology courses to all students at the Sibelius Academy and Uniarts Helsinki.
