SAE Auckland Announcements
Applications open for 2027!
SAE Auckland is searching for its next class of creators! Apply now for 2027!
SAE Auckland is now accepting applications for its 2027 intake, in audio production, screen production, music production, songwriting, and creative business. With an Open Day set for 15th August, a growing roster of industry partners, and a global campus network connecting from Auckland to Europe, Asia, and the Americas, SAE Auckland is positioning its next cohort for careers in a creative industry that operates without borders. Places are limited and selective, and prospective students are encouraged to apply early.
What programmes does SAE Auckland offer in 2027? The 2027 intake marks the second year SAE Auckland will offer its expanded Graduate Diploma in Creative Business, a qualification built in direct response to how the industry continues to evolve through an entrepreneurial lens. Today’s music and creative professionals aren’t just artists, filmmakers or technicians; they’re entrepreneurs, collaborators, and digital-first operators who desire to understand the business of creativity as clearly as the craft of it. Alongside this new programme, SAE Auckland’s existing programmes in Audio Production, Screen Production, Songwriting, and Music Production continue to attract students serious about building technical careers in professional creative environments. All programmes are delivered through SAE’s signature studio-based model: hands-on, project-driven, and taught by lecturers who are active industry practitioners.
SAE Institute operates globally, and international reach is a practical advantage for Auckland students. An SAE Auckland qualification carries weight whether a graduate is applying for a role in Wellington, working with a label in London, or pitching a project to a production house in Los Angeles, an increasingly important advantage as streaming platforms, digital distribution, and remote production continue to flatten the geography of the creative economy.
The creative industries are moving fast, and the next generation of Aotearoa’s producers, filmmakers, content creators, songwriters, and creative entrepreneurs are already making their move. Applications for the 2027 intake are open now!
