music technology PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

We have 22 music technology PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

Emotional response to immersive audio in live music performance

  Research Group: Communication Technologies
This project is a collaboration between University of York and L-Acoustics as part of CoStar LiveLab. It will address the challenges of understanding the impact of different listening environments, contexts and technical setups and sound formats on listeners. Read more

Music PhD Programme

We have a global reputation for our world-leading research in composition, ethnomusicology, musicology, music technology, performance and psychology of music. Read more

Music PhD (option of joint PhD with Hong Kong University)

For 2024/25 entry, the Music Department is only accepting applications for PhDs in Eighteenth-Century Music History and Composition. Read more

Real-time Networked based Musical Interaction in virtual immersive environments

  Research Group: Communication Technologies
There is a high demand for making and consuming live music over networked based systems. Virtual recording studios, performance venues and rehearsal spaces are within our technological grasp, bridging gaming technologies, low latency networking and immersive audio strategies. Read more

Computational neuroscience: Statistical signal processing for multivariate neuronal data, Neural computing with Spiking neural networks.

  Research Group: Healthcare Engineering
How does the human brain work? As you read this text, the pixels on your screen are converted into a series of spike trains passing along the neural pathways in your brain, allowing you to understand the content. Read more

Influence of listener movement on tonality and spatial quality in adaptive immersive surround sound systems

  Research Group: Communication Technologies
Whilst there is a significant body of work that focuses on the spatial quality and tonality of immersive surround sound systems for a sweet spot position, these qualities under a dynamic listening scenario (i.e. Read more

Improvements in headphone based 3-D audio using adaptive binaural signal processing and robust head-tracking

  Research Group: Communication Technologies
Design of immersive binaural surround systems requires an understanding of the perceptual cues for sound source localisation. Any source at a given angle of incidence to the head will create subtle time and level difference cues at the ears and is subject to spectral shaping due to the pinnae. Read more

Immersive Audio for Virtual Production

  Research Group: Communication Technologies
We seek a candidate to work in the area of immersive sound for virtual production technologies for live performance. We are interested in PhDs to develop the underlying signal processing and perceptual evaluation of shared, networked immersive audio enviroments across a range of different contexts and experiences. Read more

Exploitation of Full-Duplex Capability in Underwater Acoustic Communication Networks at the Medium Access Control Layer

  Research Group: Communication Technologies
Full-duplex has the potential to double the capacity of point-to-point communication links, but these benefits can only be fully realised in communication networks through development of a suitable medium access control layer. Read more

Energy-harvesting based MAC protocols for Wireless Sensor Networks

  Research Group: Communication Technologies
A plethora of energy-efficient MAC protocols have been developed for wireless sensor networks based on the assumption of readily available (if somewhat limited) battery power. Read more

Audio for Virtual and Augmented Reality

  Research Group: Communication Technologies
Recent developments in low cost VR displays have led to a resurgence of research into binaural 3-D audio. Whilst a good 3-D audio experience can be given using the state of the art technologies, there are still many problems to be solved. Read more

Equally Safe Sound Design

This aim of this research is to identifying emotions women might perceive when harassed or intimidated in public spaces and how these emotions might be represented sonically. Read more

DDSP in Procedural Audio Sound Effects

This aim of this research is to improve the audio quality of synthesized procedural audio sound effects, optimising parameters through the use of differential digital signal processing (DDSP) techniques. Read more
