This module is based on a selection of recent and innovative scholarly writings on music, which challenge the reader to examine their assumptions about the nature of both scholarship and music as cultural practices. It is taught together with MUSI6022 Adventures in Musical Research, which is designed for students on Music's MMUS pathways. Students in the undergraduate version will attend the same seminars and do the same reading assignments, but write shorter essays for assessment.

This module builds on the Advertising & Branding Theory module in semester 1 where the fundamentals of global advertising and branding are introduced and discussed. In Advertising & Branding Practice you will work to live briefs acting in agency or in-house strategic account management roles.

By undertaking this module you will gain an understand of how advertising, brand and full service agencies and in-house departments operate, structures, roles and responsibilities, and the client/agency dynamic.

During this module you will learn how to work to real client briefs in a simulated agency environment, developing the skills needed to thrive in an account management and strategic role. You will explore case studies of ethical and sustainability focused advertising and branding campaigns and learn how in an advertising strategic role these values can be included within client campaigns and projects.

Case studies will also be explored to understand how real global campaigns were created from the brief through to delivery. These may be enhanced with input from those working in agencies in the form of recorded and/or live sessions.

You will gain a deeper understanding of areas particularly valuable for thriving in entry/graduate roles. Examples include presentation and pitching techniques, client liaison and management skills, plus putting ideation and branding learnings into practice. This all enables a greater understanding of the creative process, accurate client brief interpretation and pitch success.

This module covers aerodynamic noise sources and sound propagation in moving media. Aeroacoustics is of great importance in engineering settings involving high speed flows, including transport (aeroplane, aeroengine, automobile, train), industrial processes and the design of consumer devices.

For students from acoustical engineering, this module places the discipline of acoustics in the wider context of fluid mechanics. For students with a background in aerodynamics, this module provides a self-contained introduction to acoustics and its interactions with other aspects of fluid mechanics.
