I had the privilege of studying Sound Engineering at Loyola. The course provided me with invaluable knowledge and skills that have greatly contributed to my journey as an independent music artist. The faculty at Loyola Sound Engineering were not only knowledgeable but also incredibly supportive, creating a conducive learning environment. My experience there was enriching, and I am grateful for the solid foundation in sound engineering that I received.

Hey, I’m John! Throughout my school days, I was a guitarist and a vocalist. My passion was extremely inclined to music, however things didn’t fall in place. Having to do my professional degree in which I worked to be an architect, I didn’t have much time to pursue music. Then I found out about the Sound Engineering Course in Loyola. I immediately enrolled as Loyola is known for its undoubtable calibre. With flexible shifts, I worked during daytime and attended the course during the evening. It was a great experience with its prominent staff and musicians at the studio. I would like to express my gratitude to Suman Sir - Our course director for co-ordinating this programme. Loyola brought back the musician in me, and for that I am eternally grateful.
