The Music and Sound Production degree program prepares versatile producers, creators, and researchers who draw on a wide range of technological and artistic resources to develop innovative projects.
This degree program provides a space for exploring sound and acoustic phenomena. By integrating communication, technology, technical resources, and production processes, students develop expertise in a multidisciplinary field and engage in key practices related to multimedia production. The program has two primary objectives: to analyze and design sound-based projects as interdisciplinary creative proposals and to master new technologies applied to sound and artistic contexts.
Graduates will have a broad range of tools that will enable them to work professionally on musical, sound-based, and multidisciplinary projects. In addition to managing complete productions through the final recording stage, creating arrangements, operating equipment and software, and applying acoustic concepts, graduates will be prepared to develop innovative artistic projects and work in film, live sound, sound design, and the performing arts. Graduates will also be prepared to join national and international academic communities as faculty members or researchers in the fields of sound and the arts.
The School of Sound Arts has a faculty composed of active musicians and academics with extensive artistic and teaching experience at the national and international levels. Faculty members hold master’s and doctoral degrees. Faculty members contribute to the local and international arts scenes through a wide range of artistic and technical activities, including performance, sound design for different spaces, concert programming, content development, workshop organization, and conference presentations. They carry out this work as composers, musicians, and producers.

En el segundo piso de la Biblioteca de las Artes se encuentra el Fondo de Mesías Maiguashca, un espacio dedicado a la obra del renombrado compositor ecuatoriano, la cual nace del rigor, la investigación y una inquebrantable vocación por la escucha. Consta de 50 obras en diversos formatos, cada una con audio o video, partitura y texto. Su inauguración se dio en la Minga Multimedia de Arte y Tecnología, mMAT.
Los sikus que el compositor, director de orquesta, investigador y académico boliviano Cergio Prudencio trajo para la conferencia-taller “Territorios Tecnopensantes: Instrumentos musicales de la cultura aymara”, que dictó en el auditorio Pedro Carbo de la Biblioteca Municipal en el marco de la Minga Multimedia de Arte y Tecnología, los donó a la Universidad de las Artes como una parte de su corazón, dijo emocionado.
Lo señaló su director, el docente Fredy Vallejos en el acto inaugural, el 15 de julio anterior. En este año, la XIII edición de la Minga Multimedia de Arte y Tecnología, mMAT, contaba con el apoyo de la Dirección General de Patrimonio Cultural del Municipio de Guayaquil y en ese marco varias de las actividades programadas se desarrollarían en la Biblioteca Municipal. Allí hubo los días 15, 16, 17, 20 y 21 charlas, talleres y conversatorios.
