For those interested in attending an on-campus Florida audio engineering school, you’re in luck. There are several quality options available in the sunshine state for you to choose from.
Even though most of the music “scene” is more towards Miami on the southern tip of Florida, there are plenty of schools scattered throughout the state for your convenience.
The two most well known Florida schools are SAE and Full Sail. Full Sail offers an online version of its curriculum as well. (Which you can find here)
The job outlook in Florida for audio techs/producers/engineers isn’t the best, but just like any other job, you need to find a way to stand out from the crowd.
That starts with a solid education, followed by diligence and not being afraid to put in some long hours paying your dues. If you can do those things, you’ve got a pretty good shot in this industry.
