London College of Creative Media

Introduction

About us

LCCM is a specialist higher education college. This means we focus on a specific range of related subjects. Because our degrees are designed and run by leading figures from the music, publishing and software industries, when you choose to study at LCCM you can expect to leave well equipped for graduate-level work in or beyond the creative industries

Our story

We believe that specialist higher education is best delivered:

  • in small groups with students supported by one to one tutorials
  • by top industry professionals who are also great teachers rather than academics
  • in a friendly, creative environment
  • with access to professional level facilities and resources
  • to high academic standards
  • with students focusing on how to collaborate and communicate effectively
  • with high-level graduate skills embedded to ensure work-readiness for all sectors
  • with the alacrity and agility to adapt, improve and modernise continually

The LCCM story first began in 2001, when Geoff Hemsley and Darius Khwaja resolved to found a new college for contemporary popular music in the centre of London. Their aim was to create a new approach to teaching music that mixed the best of the good universities and conservatoires with an art school environment. The course that emerged embedded production with performance, establishing LCCM as the first music college where all students had to master both performance and production; a development that was increasingly evident in the music industry.
