Study Details: MA Full-time: 12 months
We are a top 2 UK modern university for Music (The Guardian University Guide 2023).
This innovative new MA in Music puts your interests at the heart of your experience.
Building on the success of our undergraduate Music programmes, this exciting new MA Music aims to provide a supportive and encouraging environment in which to develop your practice.
We have flipped the traditional structure of a Masters, where taught modules are followed by a final project or dissertation, by enabling you to work on and develop your major project from the outset.
This programme is ideal for musicians, composers, producers and artists who want to develop their practice, and for scholars who wish to take an academic approach to their study. There is no requirement for undergraduate music study and we welcome practitioners and scholars from all disciplines.
Typical entry point to this course is in September. Please enquire for more information.
The entry requirement for this course is a Bachelor (Honours) Degree at 2:2 or above in any discipline.
All applicants must also submit a portfolio with their application.
If you anticipate undertaking creative or practical work such as songwriting, composition, or production etc. as part of the MA programme, please also include examples of your work in this area. This can be links to publicly available work (e.g. YouTube, Spotify, Soundcloud) or to work stored on the cloud, for example.
We may also consider lesser qualifications if you have sufficient professional work experience within the industry.
Suitable candidates will be required to attend an interview with the Programme Leader and a portfolio may also be requested prior to interview.
This course has academic entry requirements which are assessed alongside relevant work experience. Full details of any relevant work experience, including references should be submitted with your application and may be considered for entry where the minimum academic entry requirements are below those required.
Usually, unrelated work experience is not considered sufficient for entry without meeting the minimum academic entry requirements. Please contact us with your specific circumstances by submitting an enquiry form and we will be happy to discuss your options.
If you want to get more information on the admission process, please get in touch with the postgraduate admissions team by submitting an enquiry form.
