Established in Sydney in 1976 – originally as the world’s first dedicated school of audio engineering (SAE) – the organisation’s rapid early success and the demand for our high-tech, creative and industry-relevant training quickly led to the establishment of nationwide campuses.

Our presence in New Zealand began in 1989 with SAE Auckland opening in Parnell. Today, SAE Auckland spans three buildings in Parnell Village offering Diploma and Bachelors Degree level study across Music Production, Audio, Songwriting and Film. SAE has concurrently expanded strongly into the global arena as a leading digital media educator.

Contemporary and inspiring, SAE courses are definitively high-tech and have their finger on the pulse of creative industries around the world. We offer courses in more than 20 countries with around 50 campuses, enabling collaboration with a world view.

With a practical focus, our courses are constantly evolving to meet the needs of students and industry demands. They are delivered on-campus and online using cutting-edge technology and offer a highly personalised, interactive, and collaborative learning environment.

As an SAE student, you will have access to our industry-leading campuses, utilise the latest equipment and software, and benefit from our extensive industry network.

We’re passionate about our students’ potential and encourage them to chase their dreams. We promise that your SAE experience – wherever you are enrolled in the world – will offer a progressive learning experience to meet your creative and professional aspirations, help you stand out from the crowd, and give you a ticket to the global stage.

Welcome to our creative world!
