Committed to fostering critical thinkers and writers, the musicology faculty offers a wide range of courses in classical and vernacular Western and non-Western
musics. Our courses focus on the study of music in its historical, analytical and
cultural contexts. These studies form an important component of both the undergraduate
and graduate degrees. The department offers a Master of Arts with a concentration
in Musicology. Master's theses may focus on topics drawn from a variety of sub-disciplines,
including historical musicology, popular music studies, jazz history and ethnomusicology.
Master's candidates may also pursue a dual degree in Musicology and Performance.
