controllers by renowned manufacturers, such as Neve, SSL and Digidesign, and will

include a full range of the finest equipment found in top studios around world.

State-of-the-art computer facilities and an extensive specialized library and

classical recording studio (complete with a Steinway grand piano) also help make SAE

Oxford a truly interactive place of study. As part of SAE's educational concept,

students can book their practice time in the studios and labs on an individual

basis, assisted by the Degree Center's qualified and professional staff.

provides students with a whole world of opportunities, SAE's Global Alumni

Organization and Career Placement Program is there to help launch exciting

international careers.

SAE President, Founder and CEO Dr. Tom Misner stated, 'I have chosen Oxford for its

excellent infrastructure for our students and its location. SAE Byron Bay will

remain the regional office for Australia/Asia and is also being enlarged, whilst

Oxford will take the role of global administration and research center for SAE.'
