The Bachelor of Arts in Music examines music as an art form within its historical and cultural contexts. Coursework centres on music theory, analysis, and history, complemented by musicianship training that adds a practical dimension to the degree. Complementary courses allow students to tailor part of their studies to individual interests. Sample courses include Musicianship Training 1, Music Theory Fundamentals, Critical Thinking About Music, and Theory and Analysis 4. The program is administered by the Faculty of Arts and serves as preparation for graduate study in music or related humanities fields, as well as professional paths such as music theory, musicology, music librarianship, and arts administration. It treats music as a product of culture, situating it alongside other humanistic disciplines rather than teaching it in isolation.
