The Bachelor of Music in Musicology (B. Mus.) is a 90-credit, three-year full-time program that provides grounding in music research methods alongside broader humanities skills. Coursework covers music history, analysis, theory, and aesthetics across classical, jazz, popular, and world music traditions. Unlike other music pathways at the institution, this program does not require an instrumental audition for admission. Students without prior formal music training complete three first-year prerequisite courses in music theory and ear training. The program prepares graduates for further study or careers in music research, criticism, education, and cultural or arts administration. It admits students in the Fall and Winter terms.
Requirements
Admission Requirements: Quebec applicants need any DEC diploma; students without a music DEC must complete three prerequisite courses in music theory and ear training during their first year.

International applicants need 12 years of pre-university education plus one year of higher education. Non-francophone applicants must score at least 300/699 on the mandatory TCF tout public sections and at least 6/20 on the written expression component.
