BA (Hons) Popular and Commercial Music

I feel like I belong in Cardiff

Growing up in a seaside town in Devon, Izzy quickly discovered that there wasn't much of a music scene. This all changed when Izzy took the plunge and applied to study at USW.

Since studying here, she has set up a band with fellow students on her course (and they have even appointed a band manager from the BA (Hons) Music Business course!)

Because of her time at USW, Izzy now knows that music doesn't need to just be a hobby, it can be a full-time career.
