Master of Arts Music and Specialization Feminist and Gender Studies

About this programme

The School of Music offers the Master of Music (MMus) and the MA in Music. There are two streams: one in performance, the other being musical research. Performance studies are offered in piano, voice, orchestral instruments, and guitar. The School of Music participates in collaborative programs in Feminist and Gender Studies and in Medieval and Renaissance Studies at the master's level (MA only). For more information on these programs, see “Admission Requirements.” The collaborative program in Feminist and Gender Studies at the master's level is designed for students from selected disciplines in arts, education, health sciences, law, social sciences, and counselling and spirituality (Saint Paul University), who have an interest in Feminist and Gender Studies. These students have the opportunity to combine advanced studies in their primary program with analyses from a Feminist and Gender Studies perspective. The degree awarded is a master's degree in the primary program with a "specialization in Feminist and Gender Studies". The School also offers two graduate diplomas, one in piano pedagogy research and another in orchestral studies. The summer term (May to August) of the first year of study for this program is considered a regularly scheduled break approved by the University. Students must resume full-time studies in September. The programs operates within the general framework of the academic regulations in effect for graduate studies.
