Students benefit from an exclusive opportunity to gain industry experience alongside Tiger Bam Communications in Levitate's Birmingham Music Week
The University is pleased to be involved in the Levitate Festival 2015 this February. The festival presents an opportunity not only to showcase some of Birmingham's musical talent and industry skills, but an opportunity for students to get involved and experience first-hand what it is like to work in the music industries on a number of levels. ‘Parkside Works’, Birmingham School of Media's in-house student industry placement agency, has been specifically set up to provide music and media companies in the region with skilled students able to support those industries.
The Music Week Programme will be running from Monday 23 February until Sunday 1 March, including an Industry and Showcase event on Thursday 26 February.
'A week long focus on Birmingham's music industry, with a conference at its heart that highlights dynamism and resilience, prototypes solutions to challenges facing the sector, and provides access to experts whose input can energise your own professional journey. Let’s celebrate what Birmingham does well, and collaborate to achieve more. Together, we can levitate.' Levitate.
